i need a a mouse over effect script for my web page .
it should show to "small window"(not a popup window) when the mouse is run over.

for example :
it should show the meaning of the word when the mouse is moved over a particular word on my webpage.

Hi there AceAll,

have you considered using the title attribute?

example

He fell down a <span title="nearly vertical shaft in a glacier, formed by surface water percolating through a crack">moulin</span>

Another approach is to use CSS. Note that the text-indent property set on the a:hover is to overcome an IE bug (with fondest regards to SuzyUK).
