We can remove the default behavior of hyperlinks which is to show a dotted outline around themselves when active or focused by declaring CSS outline property on active/focused links to be none.
Select the cells from which you want to remove the dotted border. Click the Home tab. In the Font group, click on the 'Border' drop-down. In the border options that appear, click on 'No Border'
To remove focus around the button outline:none property is used. Outline property: Outline is an element property which draws a line around element but outside the border. It does not take space from the width of an element like border.
button::-moz-focus-inner {
border: 0;
}
No need to define a selector.
:focus {outline:none;}
::-moz-focus-inner {border:0;}
However, this violates accessibility best practices from the W3C. The outline is there to help those navigating with keyboards.

If you prefer to use CSS to get rid of the dotted outline:
/*for FireFox*/
input[type="submit"]::-moz-focus-inner, input[type="button"]::-moz-focus-inner
{
border : 0;
}
/*for IE8 and below */
input[type="submit"]:focus, input[type="button"]:focus
{
outline : none;
}
The below worked for me in case of LINKS, thought of sharing - in case someone is interested.
a, a:visited, a:focus, a:active, a:hover{
outline:0 none !important;
}
Cheers!
:focus, :active {
outline: 0;
border: 0;
}
[Update] This solution doesn't work anymore. The solution that worked for me is this one https://stackoverflow.com/a/3844452/925560
The answer marked as correct didn't work with Firefox 24.0.
To remove Firefox's dotted outline on buttons and anchor tags I added the code below:
a:focus, a:active,
button::-moz-focus-inner,
input[type="reset"]::-moz-focus-inner,
input[type="button"]::-moz-focus-inner,
input[type="submit"]::-moz-focus-inner,
select::-moz-focus-inner,
input[type="file"] > input[type="button"]::-moz-focus-inner {
border: 0;
outline : 0;
}
