Question

How to disable display status bar when mouse over on images or links in my page?

Answer 1

Don't do it.

It's interfering with the way a browser is supposed to work, and is usually done on shady websites that don't want people to see they're being redirected to all kinds of unwanted c**p.

If you insist:

<a href="link" onmouseover= " window.status='boo'; " onmouseout = "window.status=''; " >Link</a>

Remove the superfluous spaces inserted in there because Yahoo denies the existence of code examples.
