Example 1

In the following example we will display an alert box when the user moves the mouse pointer away from the image:

onmouseout="alert('Visit W3Schools!')" />

The output of the code above will be:

W3Schools


Example 2

In the following example we will add an image that should act as a link button on a web page. We will then add an onMouseOver event and an onMouseOut event that will run two JavaScript functions that will change between two images:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function mouseOver()
{
document.b1.src ="b_blue.gif";
}
function mouseOut()
{
document.b1.src ="b_pink.gif";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.w3schools.com" target="_blank"
onmouseover="mouseOver()"
onmouseout="mouseOut()">
<img border="0" alt="Visit W3Schools!"
src="b_pink.gif" name="b1" /></a>
</body>
</html>

The output of the code above will be:
