Need script that does this (link inside) --too hard to explain in title

And move your mouse over the thread 'boxes'. See how it highlights it? Now click on the 'box' but not the URL of the thread. It still takes you to the thread.

Is there a script that does this or is just some simple HTML? I am trying to implement this into a table I created in HTML. Thanks
