How do I remove the gray highlight when clicking on a link in Firefox for Android?

@irene But isn't there a standardised solution given that this is the default behaviour on Firefox for Android?

@irene So I have to override the background attribute for the :active pseudo-class?

@irene Okay, thanks :>

It could be :active :focus or :hover
Depending on what event the browser is triggering, these pseudo attributes behave slightly differently on mobile vs a desktop.

And this is why I still use a reset stylesheet.. fucking browsers!

@justarandomuser it may be a:visited or *:focus

a:active { background: none }

So I have traversed the Fennec (Firefox for Android) source code and this is where the gray highlight is defined: https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-cen...

So, to override the gray highlight on touch down in Fennec, use a:active and define a background attribute :)

@justarandomuser I mean, at least 3 people told that.

@melezorus34 But I just wanted to be sure haha
