How do I add a pop up text box that comes up when you scroll over exisisting
text on a page. For example I have a list of company names and for each
company name I would like to have a pop up or drop down box that shows their
contact information when you scroll over the name. Is this possible in Front
Page? If not, do you know of a safe place to download the plug in or
software to do this?
 
You can do this with a span tag that contains a title tag.
Copy and paste this into a page, save it and then preview in browser and hover over company name:

<p><span title="Some text here" >Company name</span></p>

However, it will only display for a few seconds.

The best way would be to display a container with visibility set to hidden, using a javascript
onmouseover to switch visibility to visible and onmouseout to switch it back.
