So you guys all have status bar changes right? when a user moves their mouse over a link you have the onmouseover onmouseout status bar changes that end up becoming very redundant, and add to the size of your pages because each link code is twice as big.

Heres a way you can prevent all that extra BW usage

< script>
function statushide(){
window.status=''
return true
}

if (document.layers)
document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEOVER | Event.MOUSEOUT)

document.onmouseover=statushide
document.onmouseout=statushide
< /script>

Put that into your <head> section of your html page. If you want the status bar to show nothing, leave it as ''. If you want it to show "Done". put in 'Done' - or change it to anything else you want

. Remember to remove the spaces in < script> and < /script> - I had to post it that way because the board wouldnt show it without the space
