Hi to all,<br />
Is there a way to to hide the URL on the lower left corner of a web browser when a user moves his/her mouse over a link? I have three rollover images that serve as hyperlinks to other pages but I don't want the user to see the URL when they move the mouse over the links. <br />
<br />
thanks and cheers,<br />

:rocker:<!--content-->I sometimes use something similar to what petervazed posted to disguise the status bar:<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"URL" onmouseover="window.status='what you want the status bar to say'; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true"><br />
<br />
<br />
To hide the URL completely, this should work:<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href=http://www.htmlforums.com/archive/index.php/"URL" onmouseover="window.status=''; return true"><!--content-->Thanks for the code. When I move my mouse over the hyperlink, the url is hidden. After I click the hyperlink, the url is exposed on the lower left portion of the web browser. How do I get rid of this? I have attached a line of my code.<br />

onmouseout="self.status=''; return true" <br />
<br />
also in the code after the onmouseover.<br />

If I can't see the URL of a link, I don't go there. Period. All to often I get my company's "Security Notice: You're attempt to access a website that has been judged inappropriate has been logged......etc.....etc...blah...blah...blah", or it just turns out to be a waste of time anyway.<br />
Whe bother with it anyway?<!--content-->I apologize if I am sending the wrong message. I am not trying to do anything illegal or hide anything from anyone. The hyperlinks launch a page that opens within the main frame of my existing page. I just didn't want people to know the address of this because if they typed in, the new page would get opened in a new window and not look right instead of opening within the frames of my webpage. Again, I apologize. I am very new to html stuff so this is good learning for me. The work I am doing is for a municapal government. In no way would I try to jepordize someone or send them to a non-secure webpage. <br />
