mouse roll over

[lucidtech]

I've seen website that use javascript to create a "window" when the mouse rolls over something. Here is an example :

When you move the mouse over an icon, a window appears at the mouse cursor position.

Any ideas on how I can do this? Does it use a div?

There are plenty of these scripts freely available. Try some of these:

http://www.walterzorn.com/tooltip/tooltip_e.htm

http://www.dyn-web.com/dhtml/tooltips/

http://tools.devshed.com/webmaster-tools/dhtml-tooltip/

http://www.dustindiaz.com/sweet-titles

And many, many more (search for "tooltip", etc).

Hope this helps,
