The title tag over rides the alt (unless the image is missing) so...
Try this and see if that works 8)
<a href="RomeNY.htm">
<img border="0" id="img7" src="button31.jpg" height="33" width="100"
alt="Rome, NY" title="Large and unusal shaped lot in upstate NY"
onmouseover="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img7',/*url*/'button30.jpg')"
onmouseout="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img7',/*url*/'button31.jpg')"
onmousedown="FP_swapImg(1,0,/*id*/'img7',/*url*/'button1A.jpg')"
onmouseup="FP_swapImg(0,0,/*id*/'img7',/*url*/'button30.jpg')"
fp-style="fp-btn: Soft Tab 1; fp-font-size: 12; fp-font-color-hover:
#00FF00;
fp-font-color-press: #FF0000" title="Large and unusal shaped lot in upstate
NY"></a>
Applying the "title" to the image.....

| Honestly not sure if the mouseover script would defeat the tag, but I
don't
| see one in the code anywhere. The screen tip is generally created with an
alt
| attribute. This is so visually impaired visitors can decifer your image
with
| a screen reader,
|
| You could try adding this to the image tag alt="your text here" Works in
IE,
| but unfortunately, alt won't appear in NS and some other browsers, so I
also
| add title="your text here". Make sure to leave a space before alt / title
| and after content.
