Not sure of the terminology, but I want a small window to open when I hover
over an object with any info I want to type into the window.
It would appear the same as when you add a comment to a cell in MSExcel.
Quite a few online catalogues use this technic, you hover over the object
and a box or window opens with the info.


Thanks

There are a few ways to do this, depending on what you are
looking for...

You can use the 'title' attribute, which will give a tooltip
when hovering over an item, or even text depending on the
implementation.
There are also javascripts which can do this, and more

Both are demonstrated here:
