Forum:Question for Firefox users

Hi! In Firefox, when clicking on the wordmark, in vast majority of wikis, a dotted underline appears under it. I tried asking Wikia Staff about the issue, since it does look like a simple oversight, but it seems they don't see the line. I later confirmed with another user on my home wiki the he indeed does see the line as well. It can be seen here:

It's a text decoration only for active links and disappears after clicking away or clicking something else (like regular links). I know it can be easily dealt with CSS but I'm curious if any of you see it as well? I guess including Firefox version and maybe the OS you're using in the answer might be helpful in solving the issue. Thanks in advance! Sovq 07:16, March 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * In addition to Chrome, which I normally use, I have the latest stable version of Firefox (3.6.15) on Windows 7. I don't see this line problem that you're having, however I click it. :) The 888th Avatar   (talk)  11:50, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * Same, what version are you using?  Random Time  13:16, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
 * I also have that.
 * The problem is not the (dotted) line being there. The problem is that there is only a line and not the whole (dotted) box around the link you have clicked.
 * For any practical reason I don't see any problem with it.

 * You're right, technically it should be around the whole wordmark after clicking, like any other link/linked image,but I do remember that there was a time (3 months ago and earlier, more or less) that this underline did not appear whatsoever, neither does it appear for some users now which leads me to believe that it's not intended to be there. You're also right that there is no practical reason for it's removal, but I guess editors that pay (too much ;)) attention to detail and styling, such as myself, will find it annoying. I'm using Firefox 3.6.15 on Windows XP SP2. Sovq 14:30, March 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure it's directly fixable with CSS - the wordmark already has  on it.


 * fixes it. But that's not the issue, the issue is that it appears for some and for others not, so it's an oversight by Wikia, that's why I want to find the reason and ask for it to be fixed at the source without having to use css overrides. Sovq 15:13, March 16, 2011 (UTC)
