Dreamweaver CS3: Blue box link

Click to enlarge

I have recently upgraded from Dreamweaver 8 to CS3. The interface remains almost the same. Dreamweaver 8 users should feel comfortable with the familiar environment. I just need to learn and get used to the new features and enhancement added in this new version. I kept running into one annoying ‘little problem’ which I never encounter in prior version of Dreamweaver. A blue box appeared everytime I created a link within an inserted image. It is not a designer visual aid for sure because the blue box remains wrapping the image when viewed with a browser. Solution:

  1. Click on the image once and take a look at Properties panel at the bottom of the program.
  2. It should show the properties (width, height, source, link…) for image that you just clicked.
  3. Look for ‘Border’ option and insert ‘0′ (zero, without the quotes) as its value. Blank fields are not the same as zero.

Problem solved!
