Need to hide web address in Java PopUp

JAllard15 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-21-03, 04:22 PM

I'm putting a JavaScript PopUp on an HTML page and need to hide the web address. I've got the browser settings so that the address doesn't show up in the browser when they're on the site, but when the mouse rolls over the link, the address still appears at the bottom of the screen. Anybody know how to hide the address from the mouse roll over?

Thanks!!

I think the following JScript example will help you.

Code:

<html>
<script language="jscript">
function onClick(){
      window.open("http://www.YOURSITE.com", "_top");
}
</script>
<body>
     <A href="jscript:onClick()">LINK1</A>
     <font onclick="jscript:onClick()">LINK2</font>
</body>
</html>

Just to break down the code for you..

<html>
// tells browser what it is about to view is Javascript
<script language="javascript">
// Use the function/event onclick with no return
function onClick(){
// opens a new window , www.YOURSITE.com, place it on top
window.open("http://www.YOURSITE.com", "_top");
// closes the function
}
// closes the script
</script>

//to put in your body tags
<body>
// create a link that does the javascript function onClick and name //the link LINK1
<A href="javascript

nClick()">LINK1</A>
// the font onclick I do not know. maybe sma can tell me what it does??
<font onclick="javascript

nClick()">LINK2</font>
</body>
</html>

one more thing. Javascript and Java is different!
