No Dots extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... src=search) doesnt work in palemoon 27, any other way to remove dotted border from palemoon?

Of course it won't work.. it is a Jetpack extension.. A rather simple one at that.. I will see if maybe I can make a userscript for this to do the same thing..

How this works is merely adding an extra blob of css to remove the dotted outline style that lets you know what link or object is selected/last active. But yeah this is so easy.. It amazes me that someone went to the trouble of writing and packaging an SDK extension..

Here is the userscript to do the exact same thing that this unworthy extension did.. Enjoy!

https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/22709-unborder

Besides cleaning up the CSS I ripped out of the extension this is what gets injected as the last element in <head />

Code: Select all

<style id="binoc.software.projects.userscript.unborder" type="text/css">a:active, a:focus, object, canvas, embed, video, audio { outline:none; -moz-outline-style: none; } button::-moz-focus-inner { border: 0; }</style>

Yeah, instead of having EACH AND EVERY ELEMENT WITH RULES I just have two things.. all the normal elements with outline:none; and -moz-outline-style:none; plus the button::-moz-focus-inner .. Shorter and theoretically more performant than the jetpack extension.

Could You make it to work on buttons too?

The CSS I used while collapsed to remove redundancy is identical to what was used by that extension. It will require some extra work to determine if it ever actually worked on buttons to begin with and if it did to see why it is not here..

The caret box is meant to assist with keyboard navigation to show focus on an element. Do note that this will make tabbing around a document next to impossible.

EDIT:

I have updated the script to version 1.1 and added input to the list of style overridden elements. Go into your Add-ons Manager > User Scripts > Select the user script > right click and select Find Updates or Force Find Updates.

No Dots extension works on palemoon 26, including on buttons
Edit: just tried it again, I was wrong. extension also doesnt remove border on buttons

Did 1.1 solve the button issue?

kosamja · Unread post by **kosamja** » 2016-08-28, 22:26

no, but since No Dots extension also doesnt remove border on buttons maybe its not possible to do that.

It's possible and I think the border on the forum is good to go.. but figuring out every damned element on every site isn't going to be easy or possible.. Regardless.. I have done exactly what the extension did and more.. So...

Try this in your usercontent.css :

Code: Select all

a {outline:none !important}

Why? The buttons in question aren't a tags and the relevant states are delt with on them.
