Hide URL of mouse overing link

Question

UPDATE

---

I finally found a simple and easy way:

 <font onclick="window.open('https://www.google.pt/', '_self');" style="background:0;border:0;outline:0">Link 

I had to use a tag to add the event to the text so I used font because it doesn't modify anything. PS: This doesn't work on JS Fiddle as, for some reason, it doesn't open the link (it stays blank).

Probably duplicated but I couldn't find it so, is there any way to prevent the URL of a link to show when I move my mouse over it? Code with image of the URL:

 <a href="https://www.google.pt/">Google</a> <br> When I over the mouse on the link, it shows the URL on the bottom left corner. <br> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/pq3ket7.png"> <br> Is there any way to prevent it? I'm using Chrome.

Answer 1

It's uncontrolled browser behavior.
You can convert it to a div, attach a click event listener an open the wanted url in the callback function.

Answer 2

The JSFiddle broke so I will just paste all the code here. Please note that the links won't work in JSFiddle because they do not allow window.location but it will work in your website.

HTML:

<a class="no-href" data-location="https://www.google.pt">Google</a><br />
<a class="no-href" data-location="https://www.google.com">Link 2</a><br />
<a class="no-href" data-location="https://www.google.co.za">Link 3</a><br />
<a href="https://www.google.pt/">Normal Link</a><br />
<br>
When I over the mouse on the link, it shows the URL on the bottom left corner.
<br>
<img src="http://i.imgur.com/pq3ket7.png">
<br>
Is there any way to prevent it?
I'm using Chrome.

JS:

$('.no-href').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();
    window.location = $(this).attr('data-location');
});

CSS:

.no-href {
  color: blue;
  cursor: pointer;
  text-decoration: underline;
}

Answer 3

Simply add it to OnClick like this:

<a href="javascript:;" onclick="location.href='https://www.google.pt/'">Google</a>

Hope it helps you.
