    Question Looking for something.. a script perhaps?

    I've had this idea in my head for a while. I guess I'm looking for a script that will let me assign and customize tooltips to certain keywords whenever they might appear on my site (versus javascripts which I have to code in myself to have customized tooltips).

    for example if I wanted to add the tooltip "my orange cat" to every occurance of the word "Floppy" on my site..

    The way I seem it, is this would be similar to an emoticon script where if there was any occurance of
    Code:
    :)
    , it would turn into the happy emoticon. Come to think of it, I don't know if I've ever seen anything like that before, though.

    So, can this be done? Is there some sort of script that can auto-assign tooltips to my keywords of choice, over my entire site?
