Dealing with affiliate links can be very rewarding to you and yet at times can also make also make your affiliate world staggered. In my previous post, I made mention on how to deal with affiliate links using the anchor text assuming psychologically the readers will never check the actual link. By using a javascript, you can actually hide links in the status bar. Add the following script in the <head> section of your page:
//Hide status bar msg script- by javascriptkit.com
//Visit JavaScript Kit (http://javascriptkit.com) for script
//Credit must stay intact for use
//configure status message to show var statusmsg="" function hidestatus(){ window.status=statusmsg return true }
</script>
On every affiliate link you wish to hide add this mouseover code:
Try to move your mouse over this link: Recommends The above-mentioned script will only disable selected links, if you are lazy and you want to disable the status bar, you can use this version 2 of the script, simply add the following to the <head> section of your page :
//Hide status bar msg II script- by javascriptkit.com
//Visit JavaScript Kit (http://javascriptkit.com) for script
//Credit must stay intact for use function hidestatus(){ window.status='' return true } if (document.layers) document.captureEvents(Event.MOUSEOVER | Event.MOUSEOUT) document.onmouseover=hidestatus document.onmouseout=hidestatus
</script>
There you are, you will not see any affiliate links on your status bar once the script is installed.
