ok, here's the question
I want to use an image map (4 links) and I want the descriptions of the links to be visable on the mouse-over. The thing is that all of these descriptions will go in the same spot in graphic form. i'm not even sure what this effect is called?
question is:
what is this effect called?
can I do it without losing any sleep?

take care,

Carolyn:

I have a section on that at my site, see:

If you use an image map, it may or may not work. But if you break it into 4 separate images, it will definitely work. Smiling
