mouseover/rollover to a different part of page

[th1chsn]

Does anyone know how to create a mouseover or rollover where the rollover effect goes to a different part of the page?

For example (using the text below) when the user hovers over link 1 - 4 then the hover effect appears where it says "Put rollover text here"

link 1
link 2
link 3
link 4

Put rollover text here

Let me know if this isn't making any sense and I'll try to explain it better.

The easiest way, assuming you are already familliar to some extent with JS, would be to have a hidden DIV, positioned where you want your text to appear, whether it's a popup window, or a couple of lines of text in a paragraph.

You'd just assign your onmouseover/out events to a JS function that set the display type of this div to hidden/block/inline, or use innerHTML to change it's contents.

You can assign onmouseover/out to most elements, img's, a's, div's, p's, whatever.
