I should mention that on the system I tested, hardware acceleration of graphics is disabled in the Options (Advanced => General => "Use hardware acceleration when available") for other reasons. This might or might not be relevant.

screenshot attached. the square borders appear on the hover event.

Could you give the address of the page that has the problem? I think that will be faster than asking a lot of questions (also, this forum is not good for pasting HTML and CSS).

the page is actually an offline web-based application that I am working on. I can provide the html and css however.

html:

<form action="whatever.html" class="forms" method=post>
<input class="inputs" type=submit value="Do Something">
</form>


css:

.forms
{
margin: 0px;
}

.inputs
{
color: #000000;
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 2px solid #000000;
border-radius: 10px;
font-family: arial;
font-size: 20px;
transition: all 0.5s;
}

.inputs:hover
{
border: 2px solid #ff6666;
box-shadow: -5px -5px 5px #6666ff, 5px -5px 5px #6666ff, -5px 5px 5px #6666ff, 5px 5px 5px #6666ff;
}


as you can see, nothing really fancy. just some formatting by css on the <form> and <input> elements. try it in firefox 23 and 25. you should see what I mean. anything older than 23 works.

That generates a different appearance than your screen shot: http://dev.jeffersonscher.com/temp/button-rounded-hover-shadow.html

this is directly from the .html file with no changes:

<style> .buttons { color: #000000; background-color: #ffffff; border: 2px solid #000000; border-radius: 10px; font-family: arial; font-size: 20px; margin-right: 20px; transition: all 0.5s; }

.buttons:hover { background-color: #6666ff; border: 2px solid #ffffff; box-shadow: -5px -5px 5px #888888, 5px -5px 5px #888888, -5px 5px 5px #888888, 5px 5px 5px #888888; color: #ffffff; text-shadow: -2px -2px 2px #000000, 2px -2px 2px #000000, -2px 2px 2px #000000, 2px 2px 2px #000000; } </style>

<form> <input class="buttons" type=submit value="Cancel"> </form>

Hmmm, that sounds like a bug, more specifically, some kind of incompatibility with your graphics driver software. Could you post that information? You can copy it from the Troubleshooting Information page. Either:

  • Help > Troubleshooting Information
  • type or paste about:support in the address bar and press Enter

Select and copy the Graphics section and then paste it here. Before posting, place preformatting tags around the pasted text (<pre> before and </pre> after) to keep the lines from running together. For example:

Intel has released a driver upgrade for that chipset, but it's safer to check with your system manufacturer to make sure your update includes any system-specific modifications they may have included.
