how to make this onmouseover thing?

[Lane]

when you put onmouseover on a link, it will show that fake url when the mouse curser is over the link. but when the surfer pushes and holds down the left button, it shows the real url in the status bar.

once i saw a site where you would click and hold the button but still see the fake url. you could see the real url only by right click - properties.

how can this be done? js gurus help!

Well I'll be dipped and dryed!

You're right! I don't think I ever would have noticed that, but then again I've not used the mouseover script much at all.

I too would be interested in knowing how to prevent this.

If they hold down the left button, when they let go, they're going to your sponsor regardless. Right??

This will stop the right click "properties", place this in the body tag (if you didn't already know) oncontextmenu="return false"

And rather than mouseovers, try this...

Everything after the http:// and before the @ are ignored. You guys probably know this but maybe somebody didn't. This can be a useful alternative to mouseovers which a lot of tgp's, link sites and avs sites give you trouble over.

well, i know all that stuff, and that wasnt my question...

how can i make it so that when left mouse button is down, the surfer doesnt see the real url on status bar, but the fake url.. this doesnt work with regular onmouseover methods.

view there source code and maybe you will see it ;-)

I've seen this done using forms but only with a submit button or image. You can, however, make a very small image that appears to be text. Nothing shows during right, or left, click.

Let me think what sponsor used that shit....

ahhh yes.. it is teenflood.com . Signup for an account, go to the banner page, and at the bottom of the page, there is the code.

I'd post it here but I always fuck up while pasting code, on a UBB.

(I just wanted to add that I am in no way suggesting that anyone use teenflood.com as a sponsor. That is the page where I saw the code, that's all!)

onFocus="window.status='http://www.whatever.com/'; return true;"onMouseOut="window.status='';

Use it together with onMouseover. Like this:

<a href="http://www.amateurpages.com/sponsorID" target="_blank" onMouseOver="window.status='http://www.amateurpages.com/'; return true;" onFocus="window.status='http://www.amateurpages.com/'; return true;"onMouseOut="window.status=''; return true;">

Bugger it. Look at the source.
