I found the code to change the text in the subject bar when the mouse moved over a link. This code worked in IE4, but it doesn't work right in IE5. Any suggestions?
The code is:
<a href="internet address" ONMOUSEOVER="window.status='Whatever you want'"
ONMOUSEOUT="window.status=''">Link name</a>

Any help would be helpfull.

onMouseOut="window.status='';return true;">Link name</a>
