If you want the link in the status bar to have something meaningful, rather than a bit of javascript code, you should do this...

<a href="apage.html" onClick="go('apage.html'); return false;" >

The link has a normal href (which is what you see in the status bar), but the normal behaviour is cancelled by the "return false" bit. So the browser thinks the link is going to apage.html in the same window, but that is cancelled when the user clicks the link, and go('apage.html') is run instead.
