I want that when you mouseover a link you change what's in the status bar (the text). I've remember seeing this in other sites, but I forgot their url. I thought I could this, but i can only change the status bar when I mouseout. How do I do it?

If you add "return true" on your mouseOver it will work fine.

<HTML>
<HEAD>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<A HREF="x.html" onMouseOver="status='A mouse over'; return true;" onMouseOut="status='A mouse out'">MOUSE ME</A>
</BODY>
</HTML>
