Do something like this. It works in both Netscape and IE.
<A href="javascript:void 0" ONCLICK="yourFunctionName();return false;">

thanx a lot Bouson.... I found out another way ... instead of writing return false if you only write return it works... return true and return false are only required if you want to specifically capture them... simply mentioning return means coming out of function

hello there
here is a quick answer to the above
for the button
<input type="button" onclick="funcname()" name="hm" value="Click">
for the link, three ways
<a href="javascript nclick="funcname()">hmmmm</a>
<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="funcname()">hmmmm</a>
<a href="# onclick="funcname()">hmmmm</a>

hope this helps
