Hiding hyperlink

J

Jack

When mouse hoovers over hyperlink, browser displays full path in the bottom,
left part of the window.
What can I do to prevent browser displaying that info?

In code or html view add this to your hyperlink:
onmouseover="window.status=' ';return true;" onmouseout="window.status=' ';return true;"

I don't believe it can be completely removed.

It is OK. working :)
The problem was my FrontPage wraps theHTML code line wrongly and I had to
edit it manually.

I noticed however that when I click on that hyperlink it will be displayed
for a short time.
How to disable that?

it is not really click but mouse down.
I tried to modify that line like this:
<a onmouseover="window.status=' ';return true;"
onmouseout="window.status='';return true;" onmousedown="window.status='
';return true;" href="http://www.phonedia

but it does not work.

You must realize, however, that this doesn't make it impossible or even
difficult for the user to find out the location of the hyperlink. It's a
simple matter of viewing the HTML soource.
