JS will not be used in the links – the examples provided at http://labs.mininova.org/noclick/ will work just as well if you use an ordinary page instead of the alert statement.

However there is a big drawback to using this script – your users will be confused. The users don’t expect ‘auto clicking’ links – so when they hover over a link – they don’t expect to be taken to the next page. So I don’t advice using it.

Binny,thanks for those links. While the concept of js is nice and useful in certain ways, having a js in links could be problematic from SE’s point. I think a GreaseMonkey script is better option.

Thanks again.

There is a JavaScript implementation of something like this…

I have created a GreaseMonkey script for this – it is available at..
