      Hi all,

      Even though it pains me that Opera has abandoned all the great features that make me love v12.x I'm trying to use Next as my secondary browser. So I can help Opera devs understand what's wrong with or missing in Next.

      Question: How can I disable that annoying blue border on inputs?
      It looks ugly as hell and websites have not designed for this to be added...

          Which blue border?

          The blue border that appears around most input boxes (probably all input that have no style for when they are focused)

              This is in Chromium the normal border-color for selected or focused text fields.

                Ans its really a problem of the webdesigners! A style with outline:0 shows no blue border after focused.

                See Testcase: http://jsfiddle.net/m904pfr9/

                  Jup Chrome has it to, one of the things I hate about that browser

                  Problem of the webdesigner?? Lol, Chrome is adding stuff to the webpage for no good reason...It shouldn't do it in the first place, its up to the webdesigner to add this functionality to their website.

                  Any way, is there any way to turn it off ? Its annoying as hell and looks ugly too! (Even though blue is my favorite color)

                    if you dont like Chromium, do not use Opera 25. 😉

                    Yes, i agree. And it is a problem webdesigners have with some ugly browsers.

                    No. Opera 25 has no user CSS to change this behaviour.

                    //EDIT:
                    May be some addon line Stylish or others adding USerCSS helps you by

                    input:focus{outline:0}
                    

                    .

                    1. Install addon from https://addons.opera.com/de/extensions/details/esi-stylish/
                    2. Add a Style NoFocus for All with following CSS
                    input:focus{outline:0 !important}
                    

                    Works fine.

                      The only problem now is that if a website does that feature it will be disabled 😛
                      So I'll enable it for certain sites

                        No, i cant laugh about new Opera, since more than a year; it is much more of crying than laughing.
                        Sorry, but it's a fact, that Opera 25 with Chromium is missing too much! I'd prefer Opera 12, for more comfort.
                        You call me ridiculous? You should complain at Chromiums bugtracker about missing features, because Opera 25 and 26 DEV is more as 90% dependent on Chromium.

                        I you're not plesured about Opera 25 or Opera 26 DEV as a your brwosing "tool" (oj, it's real a cracked tool!), you should use Opera 12. It's features are better.

                        Yeah that works, thanks.

                        Fine, that was my solution since new Opera at work.

                        The only problem now is that if a website does that feature it will be disabled 😛 So I'll enable it for certain sites

                        Yes, that is a problem, it interferes all websites, because of its CSS rule !important.

                        May be you post some commenct at Opera Desktop Team blog, your wish about disabling this "focus thing".

                        PS: Opera 25 has poor support for changing user interface, lets wait some month or years to get it .... or never 😞

                          Ahhh hehe sorry didn't realize you where being sarcastic. Trust me I hate that Opera dropped all the major features, check my comment here: https://forums.opera.com/post/54615 🙂

                          But thats why I opened this post with:

                          Yeah I removed the !important rule, it should be okay-ish now 🙂

                          The Idea of my posts here was to inform devs of missing features and also find work-around, but are you telling me that Opera devs are not looking here ?

                            I don't really know if they read here or only if they have enough time to spent.

                            Sorry, i did not want to make you feelin bad or getting angry.

                            I don't like the rule of new of Opera over users comfort. But (really bad!) i was forced to change to 25 because of many websites not working any more with old Opera 12, missing certificates, SSL errors etc.
