Speech bubbles to pop-up on mouseover

[marmite]

Hi,

 

I'm very new to javascript, and what little I have used has been copied (legitimately, of course!) from elsewhere.

 

So, I have no idea how to do this.

 

I want a speech bubble (I have the gif already created; I don't want to use regular text and the pop-up mustn't obscure the image) to pop up when I mouseover an image (which is also a link, don't know whether that matters).

 

All the javascript code that I've come across so far replaces the image rather than adding another one, just below), e.g.:

 

        <td width="137"><a href="/New_CU/myaccount.php" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('my-account1','','buttons/myaccount_a.gif',1)"><img src="buttons/myaccount_na.gif" alt="My Account" name="my-account1" width="101" height="39" border="0" id="my-account1" /></a></td>

 

I'd be grateful if anyone knows of tutorials on this... javascript looks rather beyond me at the moment  ???

 

Thanks

Emma

Check this page/pages on this site.  I use their pop-ups in my site.  http://www.candlesbythecreek.com/frag_colors.php  No Bubbles though.  :'(
