How do I make a mouseover action for simple text?

[jammer20002]

Can someone tell me how I can make a mouseover action for simple text?

The only way I can do it is by making it a link.
But when I make it a link... it has a clicking effect.
If I have to make it a link - how do I overcome the clicking effect?
I've tried making the link for the text be #. But that stills has the clicking effect.

What I want is to have nothing happen if the user clicks the text.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

lmost every other html element now adays has onmouseover events,
for your purpose

<span>,
<p>
and div elements will do

<span onmouseover="alert('onmouseover activated');">Bring mouseover this text</span>
