opening a link with hover?

[hatedguilt]

is it possible to open a link with just a hover instead of clicking?

My guess would be you would assign an OnMouseOver javascript function to the said link.

like so

<a href="http://www.somesite.com" OnMouseOver="javascript: myfunction()">Display text</a>

and the function would look something like

function myfunction() {
window.location = "http://www.somesite.com"
}

I didn't try any of this. You might have to take the HREF out of the A tag.

that's my $0.02

Yes that would work.

If you want to open a new browser window you can use
window.open("http://www.a.com");
