Example 12.5:
onmouseover: An Alert Box on a Link
Point at the link to see a message box, displayed by the onmouseover event handler.
Click right here. Not!
This is the script we used in the HEAD:
<![CDATA[
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function confirmMove() {
if (confirm("Are you sure you want to use this link? I really don't think you should. Well, if you insist, click on OK and I'll take you to the referenced page. Otherwise click on Cancel and leave the link alone!")) {
location='12-5a.htm'
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
]]>
This is the link we created:
<![CDATA[
<A HREF="12-5A.HTM" onmouseover="confirmMove()">Click right here. <I>Not!</I></A>
]]>
