Other Options
This type of status bar description goes on and stays on for a specified amount of time whenever your mouse is on the link. Copy the first part of this code into your <head></head> tag. <script language="JavaScript"> <!-- Hide from old browsers function windowon(txt){ window.status = txt; setTimeout("windowoff()",1200); } function windowoff(){ window.status=""; } // --End Hiding Here --> </script> Now put this part in the body of your document and edit the appropiate information. You can copy and paste this line for as many links that you have. <A HREF="http://YOUR URL" onMouseOver = "windowon('THE TEXT YOU WANT IN THE WINDOW STATUS');return true">THIS DESCRIBE"S THE LINK</a> If you want the description to stay in the status bar longer, change the number "1200" in the script that you put in the HEAD tags. Don't forget to change the URLs and the descriptions!!!
