URL: http://davidwalsh.name/mobile-highlight-color
Google position: 6th (webkit-tap-highlight-color)

Issue:

Article covers non-standard property. While there is no equivalent for much of the article, removing the highlight can be achieved in touch-based IE using <meta name="msapplication-tap-highlight" content="no" />. See MSDN for details.

Also it only mentions Safari but this works in Android too. Some versions need transparent rather than rgba(0, 0, 0, 0), so that should be added after the RGBA version too.

Fix:

  • Consider adding a note about the IE meta element
  • consider adding -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent; for old Android
  • Title could be updated to reflect it works in Blink based browsers too
  • I don't have any solution for Gecko/Firefox?
