Could somebody PLEASE help me find the code to have an image in the ALT when hovering over text? I found this code long ago on JavaScriptSource, but lost it, now cannot find it again. Thanks for any help! I GREATLY appreciate it!

The HTML 4.0 Recommendation came out 18 December 1997 and was superseded by HTML 4.01 24 December 1999. That's quite a long time ago considering that HTML 3.2 came out 14 January 1997.
Yes, you and I were commenting on replys to the original post and not the original post itself, just as Mr. Clark was doing when he upbraided us for doing so.
@natalieauthorNov 23.2002 — #OKAY! I did not necessarily mean HTML, its a JavaScript (hence the posting here). I've seen it and used it before and it worked. What I want to do is have a link... When hovering over the link, and image show up, but not in a new window, more like in an "ALT" mode. Supposing I didn't make myself clear. Here's where I want to put it (assuming my computer doesn't freeze and you can view this page):
When you hover over a city on the map, it shows the current conditions. However, I want to put all of those images at the bottom for each city in the hover message as well. This page is currently 100% HTML, but I want to add the JavaScript which will do this. Thanks!
@natalieauthorNov 24.2002 — #Okay, okay, okay! I get it now. I just can't figure out where to put the HTML code for an image. Could you help me out on this one? Thanks!
This is the [b][i]only[/i][/b] "ALT"-like or TITLE-like structure that is going to allow you to show an image and a link -- as a hovering structure -- when an [b]onMouseOver[/b] event is fired. Neither ALT nor TITLE will let you show anything except text. The above link is not for something that pops up in a new window. It is a DHTML (HTML/JavaScript) structure (DIV block) that can also contain HTML within it. It pops up in the same manner that the text content of an ALT or a TITLE pops up -- except that, as I said, it can show rendered HTML to boot.
