On http://www.instructables.com/id/Make-Beer/ I like that you can mouse over the steps and see some information. I tried finding the code to use by looking at the source, but could only find things that happened when you would click, but it works as a mouse over. Can anyone point me in the direction of where I can find how to code this into a site. I would really like to use it, but I'm just starting to learn Javascript.
Look on dhtmlgoodies.com. What you want it is called "Ajax Tooltips" or "Tooltips" in general. Search for that.
This is basic codes. <a href="..." onmouseover="document.getElementbyId('box1').style.visiblity='visible';" onmouseout="document.getElementbyId('box1').style.visiblity='hidden';"></a> <div id="box1" style="!Make this div float"> Some texts </div>
