Try the dhtml tooltip http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamici...xedtooltip.htm

To make it work for an imagemap, the links would be done like this:

<MAP NAME="mymap">
<AREA SHAPE="RECT" COORDS="10, 10, 135, 138" 
onMouseover="ddrivetip('text to display','yellow', 300)";
onMouseout="hideddrivetip()">
</MAP>

<img src="image.gif" usemap="#mymap">

Make Veronica's code web standard, though:

<map name="mymap">
<area shape="rect" coords="10, 10, 135, 138" 
onMouseover="ddrivetip('text to display','yellow', 300)";
onMouseout="hideddrivetip()" />
</map>

<img src="image.gif" usemap="#mymap" alt="The eye's muscles" />

thanks all...
but I want to make special areas on the image...
when mouse over a muscle ,,its name will appear...

for example on my image;
when we go superior muscle its name(m.rectus superior) will appear, when we go inferior muscle its name(m.rectus inferior) will appear,,,on the same image.....
how can we do this ??????????

alexjewell, it's already perfectly valid HTML. You've just converted it to invalid XHTML (the event names should be all lower-case too for XHTML). While there is a chance that the original poster was using XHTML, it's usually safer to assume otherwise, due to IE's lack of support.

santral, Veronica's code will do exactly as you ask. You just have to outline the shapes in the image.

[santral]

thanks alot
but how can I outline the shapes in the image?????
I really dont know how to do !!!! could you explain or write a link about outlining shapes ???

[santral]

or it could be a program or php file(like module) to make it fast.......

Take a look through this thread, you will find a link to a program for making image maps and whatnot.

Server-side image maps are an accessibility nightmare. Never use them without an alternative, and never use them where a client-side map can be used instead.
