Attaching JavaScript behaviors to links

You can attach a behavior to any link in a document. Consider using the following behaviors when you insert linked elements into documents:

Set Text Of Status Bar
Determines the text of a message and displays it in the status bar at the lower left of the browser window. For example, you can use this behavior to describe the destination of a link in the status bar instead of showing the URL associated with it.

Open Browser Window
Opens a URL in a new window. You can specify the properties of the new window, including its name, size, and attributes (whether it is resizable, has a menu bar, and so on).

Jump Menu
Edits a jump menu. You can change the menu list, specify a different linked file, or change the browser location in which the linked document opens.

Set Nav Bar Image
Customizes the display of images in a navigation bar. For example, you can use this behavior to display a certain image in the navigation bar or page when the pointer is over a certain portion of the navigation bar.
