Hover over produces a balloon.

[Mufasa]

When you hover over something, you can get it to display text (for things
like a hyperlink). How can you do that but produce a larger window with more
information. Go to download.com, put in something to search for and when you
leave the mouse over the link, it produces a box.

Any ideas how to do that?

TIA - Jeff.

Hello Mufasa,

The idea is simple - on mouse hover u create the div and start the callback
to server where you prepare info to show to user.

You can find an explanation with samples in that article http://www.aspcode.net/Ajax-and-dynamic-html-tooltips-part-1.aspx
