All I want to do is change the window status to "Main" when I hover over that main page link. Here's what I have:

<a href="main.html" onMouseOver="window.status='Main'; return true;">Main Page</a>

This doesn't work. There isn't anything in the status bar when i hover over it. Please help me figure this out.

Thx.

You added a ; after "return true"

looks like a syntax error!

Remember it dosn't work in Firefox.

It's prob just your browser. And, I don't think the ; at the end matters. btw, what exactly does return true do?
