You may run into some limits on how much some browsers can display, and you can't format titles. There are various Javascript and CSS solutions for more sophisticated displays. This site shows how to do it with just CSS: http://psacake.com/web/jl.asp

It's called a mousover. Here's an example:
href="http://www.ancestry.com/default.aspx?rlin=1">Help with Shopping Cart
In the example above, when the mouseover event occurs, the javascript function CheckToInitiateChat() gets called, which checks the other function to count the number of mouseovers before offering a chat session for help. There are also other ways you can do this, that are built into objects, style sheets, etc.
Hope this helps.

The easiest way to do it is using the CSS property "hover" for links. Check out any of the websites below on how to do it. If you don't know what CSS is, then first you should look for a basic tutorial on Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), there are hundreds of them online.
