| Try the following script here.
Just move your pointer over it - don't click it!
Just have a look at the source and you'll see that it is easier than
it seems on the first glance.
<SCRIPT>
function StatusBar(str)
{
status = str;
// wait 1.5 seconds then call
the erase function
setTimeout("erase()",
1500);
}
function erase() {
// the message in the Status
Bar gets "erased"
status =
"";
}
</SCRIPT>
<BODY>
<A HREF="javascript:void('')"
onMouseOver="StatusBar('Disappearing!');
return true;">link
</A>
- javascript:void('')
"deadens" a link, you will see more examples of this later
on in the course
- onMouseOver calls
the StatusBar()
function
