How to remove focus around buttons on click

Question

My buttons all have a highlight around them after I click them. This is in Chrome.

Answer 1

Another possible solution is to add a class using a Javascript listener when the user clicks on the button and then remove that class on focus with another listener. This maintains accessibility (visible tabbing) while also preventing Chrome's quirky behaviour of considering a button focused when clicked.

JS:

$('button').click(function(){
    $(this).addClass('clicked');
});
$('button').focus(function(){
    $(this).removeClass('clicked');
});

CSS:

button:focus {
    outline: 1px dotted #000;
}
button.clicked {
    outline: none;
}
