Question Hyperlinks
Is it possible to change the text that appears when the users' mouse is drag over a hyperlink? For instance if the user drags his mouse over a hyperlink for www.pSmith.com it would read as such. My question is- Is it possible to change that text so it would read 'Pat Smith's Homepage' or something of that nature.

Is this what you want to do... Whoever's Homepage

on this site you use the vB tags (html has been turned off)...on the www you would use HTML tags...

it would look like this...

<A HREF="www.pSmith.com">Whoever's Homepage</A>

Here's a link to look at HTML Goodies

The code doesn't seem to change the highlighted text, that is the text i would like to change- the text that appears when the mouse reads the hyperlink and a little yellow box appears below the link. Thanks
