how do i make this in javascript?

Question

here is a image of what i want to do
http://www.geocities.com/sarmenhb/onmouseover.JPG

so when one of the links has a mouse over it, in that grey box text will be displayed based on that links, something like a description in a iframe or something.

Answer 1

Here is another, possibly simpler, way of doing the
same thing ( first link ). This time without an image
swap. View the page source to see how it was done.

The code is based on that of the second link.

Answer 2

You could play around with this bit of code on my website....and where I have images you could substitute links.
