An inkjet recording element comprises a support having thereon in order, from top to bottom, a fusible, porous top layer comprising fusible polymeric particles that comprise a thermoplastic polymer with reactive functional groups, in combination with a multifunctional compound having complementary reactive functional groups capable of crosslinking the reactive functional groups on the thermoplastic polymer. Optionally, an ink-carrier-liquid receptive layer is present between the top layer and the support.
