internet explorer - Windows Phone 7 Browser - Turn off the gray shading when links are clicked

Question

With the Windows Phone 7 Browser, when the user clicks a link, it is shaded with a gray rectangle for approximately 0.5 seconds. This is fine in generally, however, if you have dynamic page behaviour, for example, clicking a link updates the DOM so that the link is no longer visible, the opaque gray rectangle lingers on the screen after the link itself has gone.

This looks pretty horrible!

Does anyone know how to disable this effect?

Answer 1

Add a meta tag in you head section in you html file.

<meta name="msapplication-tap-highlight" content="no" /> 

It should work.
