This is, I think, only an IE function of javascript. If I can't use this, I would like to instead use a div that is hidden and then made visible with some simple dHTML. I am also looking for script that will make it follow the mouse instead of stand in place until mouse rolls off. Shine and shine. :: [Cell=992] :: [See my team's 30 second animation!! ]

Try the "title" attribute - it should work on almost any element in newer browsers, e.g.:

<a href="http://www.ozoneasylum.com" title="I'm a link to the OzoneAsylum">OZONE Asylum, home of the Mad Scientists</a>

Bmud: As kuckus has suggested you should go with the TITLE attribute as it now has greatly increased support in more recent browsers.

It's called a "tooltip."

If you want it on an image, consider using the alt attribute.

eample: <IMG height=18 alt="Tech Center"

That is a good tooltip script, seems to be be similar to overlib - note that fade effects only work in ie and mozilla both using different proprietary extensions to the css specs. Opera has no such fade filters as yet (a good thing since standards is what we want in this life)
