netscape 6.2

Hello all,

I am having a problem with netscape 6.2.  When I click on something on my
page, it automatically highlights what I clicked.  This is interfering with
a menu I am writing where I use an onclick event to make the menu item
bakcground color different so that it appears highlighted.  The problem is
that I am using a treeview type menu where you click on a folder to expand
the menu, and I don't want the background color of the folder item to
change, just the menu items in the folder, but it looks like the browser has
taken this control away from me.  aaaarrrrrrrrghghghghgh!

Is there some way around this, either can I turn it off, or use CSS to
override it?

I currently have something like the following for netscape:

function(){
set target=e.target
target.style.backgroundColor = "green"
}

The function is called from an on-click event.

I am sorry I can't give a url to demonstrate, but the code is on an internal
server backed by cold fusion, so I cannot put it out on our public
webserver.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! This is driving me
crazy...everything else I am doing works, but not this...

Thanks,

Amy
