Javascript

[evildan]

Hey guys,

Looking for a javascript that will create a 'pop up' triggered by a rollover.

Here's the background.

Working on a website that has a series of thumbnails. I want to offer the user the ability to place their mouse over the link and display a descriptive paragraph with more information on the object.

This way we can have more thumbnails on a page.

I know I can accomplish this with the "title" tag in HTML, but that only works for Explorer. I'm looking for a more 'universal' solution.

Any ideas, comments, or info would be appreciated.

Thanks,

I just done a similar thing in GoLive's in-built actions (Toggle layer). I presume Dreamweaver can do the same.

Alternatively, try http://www.hotscripts.com (javascript section)... for what you need (jeez, that's twice I've plugged that site now, but it's worth it )

Thanks Uoba,

The company I work for hand codes their HTML... and they are against the use of layers (for compatibility reasons.).

I'll check out the website though

So what you are wanting is when you roll over an image you get a text box, or another image in a different location? If this is what you want, then let me know, I have a script that I used to do this. Its been awhile, but I can pull it down off a site I built some years ago.
