Okay, so I've tried and tried and looked and looked, but I can't figure this one out.<br />
<br />
When the mouse hovers over a picture of link, the ALT text pops up... I want to know how to make this a different color. Can this be done? And can anyone help me with it?<!--content-->If you get a popup text for alt attributes on an <img> image tag, then that is an incorrect browser response. The alt text is for alternative text if the image fails to load, or image loading is turned off. The alt text should go in the box where the image should have been, it should NOT popup.<br />
<br />
The popup text should be done with the title attribute on the <a> anchor instead. I don't know of a way to change the colour of that text directly, but i do know that in Mozilla it inherits properies from the html or body selectors and you can use CSS to control that.<!--content-->Originally posted by thekatester <br />

can't be done like you think. You can use DHTML to display a popup type box and make it look however you want to. Look on <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com">www.dynamicdrive.com</a><!-- w --> for the details.<!--content-->well, i don't really mean pop up, but when i put my mouse on the picture or link, text shows up under my cursor in a whit box. I saw a site where it comes up in a green box with green lettering.<!--content-->yeah it was dhtml like kevin said.<!--content-->yay! i found it!<br />
the thing was, i knew it was dhtml, but was looking in all the wron places.<!--content-->
