Blue borders around image links in sidebar

    I created at text widget and added an RSS feed link with an icon. There is a bright blue border around that image and any other image links I have tried to place in the side bar. I have tried to go in and zero out all borders through the custom CSS editor, but nothing works. I have also tried to add a no border html code in my text widget, but it doesn’t work either. They are still there! Can you help? Our blog is http://fromsundaytomonday.org/

    Thank you! : )

    I mentioned this last night because I thought you understood CSS. (You knew enough to hide the footer.) As best as I can determine (and I’m no CSS guru), the problem appears only in IE and only when you don’t define the border in the widget itself. Right now, I don’t see any border code in the widget. What code are you trying to use in it?

    When you changed the CSS, it took any hover or link distinction away from your blog, which is not a good thing.

    IE is the problem. Did you try, in the text widget, doing border none? If I remember right, I think that is what was suggested in another thread some time back.

    By the way, I see that the border is now showing up in Firefox. So there has to be a border definition in the CSS somewhere. (Perhaps in the sidebar definition.)

    Actually, I know NOTHING about CSS, and am stumbling through this thing. If I hid the footer, it was by mere accident, I can assure you. This is definitely a learning curve! : )

    Sacred Path, can you explain more about using “border none” in the text widget. Here is my code I have used.

    I will also check the border definitions in the CSS.

    Thanks!

    Actually, why don’t you try putting the border 0 in the code in the text widget. The following seems to work, however I’m getting some sort of loop when I try to access your feed which could be due to the fact that you have no posts as of yet.
