Hi Brad, you need to give your image a border of 0.  Simply click on the image and click on the image properties toolbar icon and then enter 0 in the border text box and click ok.

Hope this helps.

Coo sorted. Thanks for that fella.

Can we default it as 0?

I expect Lee will comment on if it can be default 0 but I know it defaults to blank but a quirk of the FCK editor is that when you add a link it adds a border.  I always force border to 0 for most images but there are a few where a border helps (on my site at least).

Hi :-)

It isn't a quirk of FCK .. the default html is to have a border on an image hyperlink .. it is one of the older standards before we all started using discreet navigation.

It's good to be a geek.Karen

Thanks karen - I don't do html so only know what the WYSIWYG editor gives me.

Paul - Am I right in thinking this is the global stylesheet:
"/Includes/Styles/StyleSheet.css"

If so then add this near the top:

a img {
  border: none;
}

You could force cross browser effectiveness by using:

img a:link, img a:visited, img a:active, img a:hover {
  border: none;
}

but in most cases the top one will suffice.

Also, if you used a reset sheet quite a few of these inequalities would be less present but that's another thread!

EDIT - Also, you might want to look into using TinyMCE - a much better text area editor.
