Sometimes I see on websites, that when you scroll over a text, a second text
balloon pops up, with some more information. ( for example a word is written
and a text balloon with an exact definition appears)

Is something like this possible in Fronpage? How ? (this is not for
pictures, but just plain text)

thx in advance
 
What is generating this is the 'title' attribute of a tag, and it is called
a tooltip.

<p title="This tooltip will appear during mouseover for the entire
paragraph">Some text</p>

As you mentioned pictures, I will let you know that this is most likely the
'alt' tag on images. This behavior only occurs when the browser is IE and
there is not title attribute present. If an image has both an 'alt' and a
'title' attribute, the title text will be used for the tooltip
