How to turn off Safari’s input focus outer glow
Have you ever tried to use custom CSS background images for your form inputs? Well it actually turns out to be quite easy: apply the background image and then remove the default borders. But unfortunately in Apple’s Safari you get some over zealous focus styles applied by the browsers default rendering engine:
![]()
To remove this outer glow, just apply some simple CSS:
outline: none;
See my example of how to turn off Safari’s input focus outer glow for detailed information.

This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of “neighbors” will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune “Social” is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
