Infobox on Mouse Over

[sithicus]

How coule I create an infobox on mouseover.. like the ones found on flickr, I want to do it whenever I mouse over a list of links I would like a little popup window to appear with some information. Any suggestions on how I could go about doing this? I was thinking can I style the alt tag with css?

Please look at the blue links in the product description. When you mouse over a info box pops up.

How can I style the <li> inside so that the words that wrap won't start at the beginning of the line. I would like them to indent and line up with the start of the first word that is after the * for the <lli>

thx

The whole thing can be done with CSS by making the box a span with position:absolute, display:none and a rule li span{display:block;}

To get the text to indent, use the text-indent property.

#dhtmltooltip{
position: absolute;
left: -300px;
width: 350px;
border: 1px solid black;
padding-left: 2px;
background-color: lightyellow;
font-size: 10px;
font-color: Black;
font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
visibility: hidden;
z-index: 100;
/*Remove below line to remove shadow. Below line should always appear last within this CSS*/
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Shadow(color=gray,direction=135);
}

That is my code.. I'm not sure what you mean.. can you show me what I would need to add?
