How can I add a propertye on a link that, after a mouseclick, changes the border color of the link?

I am trying to do that by adding a javascript in the properties box of the link in adobe acrobat 7.0, but I don't know how the script should be written.

You could do this if you used a button instead of a link annotation and used the following for the button's Mouse Up event:

// Change this button's border color to red when clicked
event.target.strokeColor = color.red;

For other colors, see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_A croJS.88.261.html

See if something like this helps:

function changeColor(HyperLinkObj, colorName) {
document.getElementById(HyperLinkObj.id).style.color = colorName;
}

I guess these can also be used.:
Hyperlink.borderColor
Hyperlink.borderWidth
