My problem is simple, to remedy some usability troubles on my layout i want a way to have words appear on mouseover. But, i don't want to make images for reasons. So, how can i make a layer appear when the you mouseover a link? I can't seem to find what I'm looking for anywhere else...

Thanks

Not sure this is the best way, but I pulled the script and related body part out of a (very) old web page of mine...

You should be able to modify it to suit your needs. Pretty sure that's what I did Smiling

However, this is years old - there might be a better way.

Good luck
