Float-over text in CF

[jessc]

Hi-

I was wondering if it was possible in CF to have float-over text over text, rather than an image or a link. I want the user to be able to float over a word, and a float-over provide the definition of that particular word. Any help is greatly appreciated.

THanks in advance,
Jess

I'm always amazed at how quickly tek-tips gets this job done... Might be 2 -5 seconds after loading a post but they get "Key Words" to load like this. Key words meaning they might have a list somewere that when a page is rendered if it contains these types of words then bam add a tool tip. It's like running a search routine on every page load. search this page for words in this list.

If all your really wanting, you can use the "title" attribute in HTML.

Example from

<acronym title="Cascading Style Sheets">CSS</acronym>

quite simply the answer is NO. that would be a client side function, not a server side function. ask either 1) the html/css forum or 2) javascript forum.
