MouseOver problem

[Mike]

Hope this is the right newsgroup for this. Apologies if not. I can't get
the "window.status" to show. MouseOver on image buttons (but1, but3) works
fine.

<a href="page_14.htm" onmouseover=chkVer('go1','but3');
"window.status='Back'; return true" onmouseout=chkVer('go1','but4');
"window.status=''; return true">

Any ideas please?

The quotes are not placed correctly:

onmouseover=chkVer('go1','but3'); "window.status='Back'; return true"

should be

onmouseover="chkVer('go1','but3'); window.status='Back'; return true"

Stop trying to do that. The status bar text is there for a reason.

Many think, it is there to display text....

Many thanks Klaus, works fine now.

Yes - the address that the link is going to take me to. The OP was
trying to replace that text with something much less informative.
