<a href="http://i-blogger-you.blogspot.com/?referrer=225" onMouseOver="window.status='http://i-blogger-you.blogspot.com/';
return true" onMouseOut="window.status=''">Click This</a>


redirect function
  • Create Javascript Function
  • <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
         function redirect(URL)
         {
           document.location=URL;
           return false;
         }
        </script>
  • Create Hyperlink
  • <a href="http://i-blogger-you.blogspot.com/" onclick="return
    redirect('http://i-blogger-you.blogspot.com/?referrer=225');">Click This</a>
css function
  • create a class within your style sheet
  • <style type="text/css" media="all">
    <!--
    .hideit {
      color: #000; /* change with the surrounding text color */
      text-decoration: none; /* this to remove the underline */
      cursor: text; /* make the cursor stay as a text cursor, not the hand */
    -->
