Hi Erick

You need a 'return true' in there:
  onMouseOver="javascript:window.status='Hi';return true"

Subject:  [thelist] windows status text change on mouse over?


hello. i have an image and a part of this image (area
rect) is a link to another website. in the <area rect>
of this image i have the following text:

  onMouseOver="javascript:window.status='Hi';"

but this is not working! when i move my mouse over the
part of the image, it is indeed a link and it is
working, but the window status bar still shows me the
link, not the text "Hi".
