Google position: 3rd (webkit-tap-highlight-color)

Issue:

Article covers an alternative to tap-highlight-color but only disables it for Webkit. Unfortunately it is non-standard, but there is a way to disable the highlight in IE too via: <meta name="msapplication-tap-highlight" content="no" />. See MSDN for details.

I don't know of any fix for Firefox/Gecko.

Fix:

Consider adding the IE meta tag to the article to make the technique work in IE too.
