How to use the rel=nofollow in a onClick

I am getting a JS Error in IE but not in FF when I try to add a rel='nofollow' to a URL in an onClick

<td> onclick="window.location.href='{site_url}' rel='nofollow'" onMouseOver="this.style.cursor='pointer';">Some Test</td>

I likely need to add the rel=nofollow to the href but how do I do that and still separate the parm from the URL location.

I haven't used nofollow in my own work, but it was intended as an attribute of a link tag, so I would suggest you recast your work, like this:

<td><a rel='nofollow' href='#' onclick="window.location.href='{site_url}'">Some Test</a></td>

Using an A tag like this should make the onMouseOver event unnecessary.

Hope this helps,
