It seems that Android's browser allows the selection of the slideshow (a big green blob) whenever the you click a slideshow image. It seems the Android browser considers the images as hyperlinks, even though I'm not linking my images (or using them as a nextButton or anything similar).

This is particularly problematic when using things like a 'zoombox' that viewers can scroll through, only to have a green blob appear on top of everything when they're trying to scroll through the image gallery. This issue doesn't seem to happen on the latest versions of Chrome, Firefox and IE, although to be fair Android's browser is unique in highlighting things when you click on them (so you know you've clicked on something).

Cheers,
Ben.
