@yawatide - my favorite web language happens to be javascript. But my site and portfolio shows i know far more than jscript.

@mustay, this question was more for the junior students.

And a shorter way to achieve that is:
<a href="http://www.google.com/" onmouseover="return false()" id="google-link">Go To Google</a>

What triggered off this thread was yawa's last quiz. The explanation is the same.

The most interesting part of this is that, it follows the same principle as mustay's code and yawa's question too.

So i get to keep the prize then. I'm out. Next one is going to be pure php, so watchout.
