brian, janice, et al,

: Add this to your links:
:
: onFocus="if(this.blur)this.blur()"
:~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

if you care about your users and the usability and accessibility of your
site you will *never* use this bit of code *anywhere* within your site.  the
border placed on links that are clicked are put there for a reason.  they
serve a very valid purpose -- keep you mitts off.

thanks,
