outine:none to highlight active link in framesets 1

[retrositelover]

I've got a little problem with Firefox and would be glad if someone could give me a hint.

in order to provide the visitor with an indicator what page he's actually viewing, I use this code:

a:active,a:focus{background:#F0FFF0;outline:none}

works fine in both Opera and Konqueror, but Firefox clears the background as soon as one scrolls within the target frame

No it doesn't... it clears it when the focus is lost from the link, so I'm guessing you're clicking before scrolling.

If you want to guarantee the link stays highlighted, then you might have to use some forum216 to set the class on the anchor to something until another anchor is clicked.

Hope this helps,
Dan

of course, you're right. I meant scrolling with mouse/bars

I was scrolling using the mouse wheel - which also moves the scrollbars... no clicking required ;-)
