How can i script this...?

Question

Right, this may seem complicated, but basically what i want to do is script the following using HTML, but am unsure how.
Basically, i want to be able create something along the lines of a tool tip, but something that can contain more information than the standard.

That doesn't make much sense.
How about this - i want some way of making it so i can have lots of writing in a small space, prefferably (though not exclusively) using some kind of tool tip, and in HTML.

Thanks for any help.

More details:

I've tried using a tool tip, but in Firefox, it only has the capacity of one line. I would like something that can handle more than this.

It doesn't have to be a tool tip - but some way of holding lots of text in a small area? I don't know how to describe it all that way.

Answer 1

to do a tool tip on a section, just enclose it with an tag.

If you want to do something bigger, you will need to use floating divs, which can get pretty complicated.

the easiest floating div set up is:

Answer 2

If you want more than one line to pop up (like a block of text) when hovering the pointer over an image or hyperlink, you'll need to use a combination of Javascript (to convert the mouse movement into an event with a subsequent action) and CSS (to set up a hidden div/layer of text that can be made visible with the Javascript function). This is DHTML (Dynamic HTML) and it can be a bit rough to learn if you don't have much experience with these two combined technologies.

Using a WYSIWYG website editor like Dreamweaver can take away a little of the pain of handscripting a function like this, but you still have to understand the concept of DHTML somewhat to pull it off.

You can't do what you're asking with simple HTML, and more information regarding the layout of the structure and pages in your site would need to taken into account to offer a solution.

Frustrating, I know. Sorry.

Answer 3

I opt for the non-scripted wrestling. I like to determine the connection among 2 wrestlers going at it within the ring with none buildup earlier to their fit. In the opening, the fit is also all proper. Soon, I can feel the disappointment and the willingness to make the opposite man post and I rally at the back of my favourite of the 2 (or extra). Right now, my favourite merchandising is Ring of Honor. I have watched CZW earlier than. I used to rag on them seeing that of the complete ECW factor however I've come round to love them.
