When you point to a link on the web, usually you are shown the link address. I get that too. My problem is that it won't disappear until I have the link in active window again and move the pointer over it. I know it may not make sense...
But now when I was going to check out the mouse settings it happened again and this is what it looked like.
Can anyone explain how to make it stay just until I have moved the pointer from the link? It's extremely irritating having to minimize the window I have up. It doesn't help to move the mouse if the window that is active is not the same as the one the link is at...
I have marked the part that annoys the crappola outta me! |

Wish I could help Spider but I don't have a clue.
Is that Windows7 you're using? How do you like it? That is other than this URL hanging around too long. LOL

Spider, I don't understand the URL floating around on the page ... has it always done that or just started? The URL shows up for me too when I point to a link in a webs page but the URL shows up in the Status Bar at the bottom not in the middle of the page.
I also have XP and use Seamonkey

I wonder if it might be problems with the mouse configurations.
My pcs show urls at bottom also, only in certain places does it show a pop up with info, like the links at the top of this forum or the smilies.
Try hitting the insert key when it happens. |

Right Dave, me too. Links will have the little popups giving a description of what they are for but I've yet to see a URL show up across a page and stay there.
Spider, what browser are you using and does this happen on ALL pages or just some of them?

AH HA!! It's Opera!!
You must have Status Bar disabled that's why the URL shows up on the page. Inable Status Bar and the URL will no longer show up on the page but rather at the bottom in the Status bar

As for why it doesn't disappear when you move your mouse off the link I don't know. It disappears for me the instant I move my mouse.
You may have to ask Nightrider, he is the expert on Opera.

Thanks folks. I'm gonna try to use the status bar for a while and see. It actually caught my eye a couple of weeks ago.
The reason I haven't had the status bar enabled is that I prefer to have it minimalistic, but still nice. It's not a big difference to have it enabled so that's what I am doing.
Thanks again RB and Dave! I just KNEW that I could rely upon you guys!
