You can get some hints here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3108425/dont-want-to-show-address-in-the-status-bar-while-hovering-a-link one of them being the use of javascript like this: <a href="javascript:;" onclick="location.href='http://conglomo.co.nz/'">Conglomo</a> But a look at the source code on the browser (you cannot block that from the server) will reveal the URL anyway. Bottom line: only override the URL in the status bar if you want to put something _really useful_ there, otherwise let it display as usual. Kurt Bremser Allianz Technology GmbH Newton was wrong.

Is there a way to hide the URL link when hover over the link and also when browser is in the process of connecting to target site. This is a legitimate reason to do so, though browsers may have disable such scenario. Running Ubuntu and apache.
