Attaching JavaScript behaviors to links

You can attach a behavior to any link in a document (see Applying a behavior). 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 action to describe the destination of a link in the status bar instead of showing the URL associated with it. (See Set Text of Status Bar.)

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

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. (See Jump Menu.)

Set Nav Bar Image changes how a navigation bar behaves. Use this behavior to customize how the images in a navigation bar display. For example, when the pointer is over part of the navigation bar, the display of other images in the navigation bar or in the document change. (See Set Nav Bar Image.)
