      You can use javascript to do this, but how on earth do you think this will secure your application in any way?

        You can't disable the status bar on the main window unless you have used window.open to create. You can use JavaScript to set the statusbar text for the link to be empty

        <a href="..." onMouseOver="status.text=''">

          ... onmouseover="self.status=''; return true;" ...

          FTFY :) Downvote it all you like, the fact remains my "correction" is correct and (no offence meant, but) Mark's snippet was not.

              Your application will not be any more secure by hiding the status. Users can still right click on the links and copy the location. They can also view source. Any of the tricks you use to disable any of those options can be defeated by visiting your site with javascript turned off. If you don't want users to visit a page directly then you need to implement something different that checks their access rights in the OnInit of each page.

                Yeah, I know been a long time since I've done it, got the names wrong. But got the meaning. As for the down vote, well there are ID10Ts everywhere, brush it off and don't feed them.
