Code for hover text??

    I didn't see an existing thread for my question.

    Awhile back I saw someone using "hover text" (is that what it's called?) in their text links.

    What I mean is, in the text link code, they had the regular text that comprised the link and then there was the text that appeared in a box when you hovered the cursor over the link. I'm trying to find the code for this. It wasn't some complicated css trick...it was really simple regular coding...(all the coding required for it was in the link code)...

    Anyone know what I'm talking about?

    I think you mean the title tag, eg:

    <a href="page.htm" title="this is what appears when you hover over the link for a second or two">link text</a>
    Code (markup):
    That seem like the thing you have in mind?

    Or are you looking more for a DHTML tooltip style?
