HTML Codes

<A TITLE="...">

<A onMouseOver="...">

Attribute for <A ...>
onClick = "script command(s)"

this code	produces this
<A HREF="mypage.oc.html" onClick="alert('Heading Home!')">My Page</A>	My Page

One of the more useful uses of onClick is creating a popup window which the links targets. This example uses our popup window script (see Popup Window Tutorial ).

this code	produces this
<A HREF="mypage.popup.html" onClick="return openWindow(this,'mypage')" >My Page</A>	My Page

If onClick returns a value of false then the click is cancelled and the browser doesn't go anywhere. For example, you could check if a user really wanted to go to a URL like this:

this code	produces this
<A HREF="deleted.oc.html" onCLick="return confirm('Are you SURE you want to delete this record?')" >Delete It!</A>	Delete It!
