Borders around links

[Peter Campbell]

Sorry if this is old hat or too simple a problem for everyone, but I was
doing up my website last night and using the <A HREF=""><IMG SRC="">
commands to make a picture a link, I realised I really don't like the border
that has been automatically added around the image. Any way to remove it?

Sorry, I've given my HTML book a loan of to someone otherwise I'd look up
that!

Believe it or not, I actually tried using the BORDER command (BORDER="0" in
actual fact) like I use in TABLE commands but it didn't seem to work.

I'll tell you what, I'll have a look at the links you kindly provided.

<img src="..." border="0'>

DUH!!!

<img src="..." border="0'>

DUH!!!

Cheers. I was using the BORDER command in the <A> tag.

I assume you meant to put a closing " in your line instead of '?

Duh!

HTML doesn't have commands. it has elements and attributes to those
elements.

I was brought up in programming in BASIC and, for better or worse, commands
they shall remain.

HTML is a markup language (thats what the ML stands for) not a
programming language. you write or author HTML, not program it.

HTML: <img border="0" ... >
or better, in an external CSS file
a img { border: 0; }

Just because you're old doesn't give you an excuse for fucking up the
nomenclature to suit yourself.
A web page isn't a program, it is a document that has been marked up for
display.

The act of "marking up" is a publishing practice that has been around far
longer than the Internet or even computers.

<img src="..." border="0'>

DUH!!!

"Duh!!!" indeed, the border attribute has long been deprecated[1] in favour
of the CSS border properties.

img {
border-style: none;
}

DUH, yourself...I knew that but also could tell that the original poster wasn't
quite up to that level...

Just because you're an arsehole, doesn't mean you should show it all the
time.
