Tooltip/Menu Script

    Hey guys, I'm working on a self-serve printer mapping tool for work. The way I want it is when a user mouses over a printer icon on the building map they get a layer popup with info about the printer, a link for mapping it, etc.

    So like a tooltip but the layer needs to stay in place, not move around with the mouse, so they can enter it and click links. Like those mouseover ads you see in some web pages.

    I'm looking for an appropriate script, can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks.

    sure thing. :) Be sure to check it in IE6 if you still support that browser. I thought I remember having some issues. If you need help PM me and I'll get you what I used.

    Thanks AtSeaDesign but I don't think that covers what I need. I took this script from simplythebest.net : http://simplythebest.net/scripts/DHTML_scripts/dhtml_script_95.html

    It's got most of what I need but I still can't make the tool tips clickable. Been web searching half the morning but it looks like it's not the simple option I thought it was.
