A href remove all styling

Question

I have a link with an <IMG> inside, which directs to a target=_blank, now what I need to do is remove the purple border that comes round the image after I click the link..

I used text-decoration: none; but it still appears ... any ideas? I didn't post the code as none is actually in place except

#portheader a {
    text-decoration: none;
    border: none;
}

<div id="portheader">
    <a href="http://www.myweb.com" target="_blank"></a>
</div>

what you mean by border is the dotted line around the anchor tag? — Gian Carlo, Apr 24 '14 at 07:48
Tried it on Chrome, and the selection doesn't appear, only on firefox it seems. — Julian Camilleri, Apr 24 '14 at 07:49

Give border:none for the image in css

For the Old browsers, use border="0" in the img tag itself.

Don't do anything for "the Old browsers". Nobody uses browsers that old. We're talking IE 2 here, not IE 8 or even IE 6. – Quentin Apr 24 '14 at 07:48

No prob. Maybe selecting this as the answer? thanks! – Gian Carlo Apr 24 '14 at 07:52
Grrr what do we use then :/ – Julian Camilleri Apr 24 '14 at 07:52
Its fine since its just for the keyboard. it would not just be selected when you try to navigate by "TAB" key – Gian Carlo Apr 24 '14 at 07:55
