images used as links have ugly blue border around them in IE6

1 New Member

When my website is viewed in IE6 on a PC and IE 5.2 on a mac my images that I've used as links have an ugly blue border around them. When you click on them it changes to a purple border. I am trying to make the border white, the same as the background color. I also don't want it to change color when it is clicked.
my website is http://www.daniellerappaport.com
and here is the code

I saw on one forum where it suggested changing the hex color #s to lowercase so I tried that but still came up with same problem. I also tried adding the code

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
a:link img {

    color: #FFFFFF;

    text-decoration: none;

}

a:visited img {

    text-decoration: none;

    color: #FFFFFF;

}

a:hover img {

    text-decoration: none;

    color: #FFFFFF;

}

a:active img {

    text-decoration: none;

    color: #FFFFFF;

and that did not work either. If anyone out there can help me solve this problem I would be forever grateful.
Thanks,
Danielle

Just remove the border, e.g.
