publisher 2007 mouse over

n
I am developing with a mode ( template) of the publisher web design 2007.

how do I add an "explanation text" to a word when I place the mouse over the
word (like a hyperlink) as the exemple below:

Pubblisher Web Design ( the word "Design" )would be in blue color like a
hyperlink and when one place the mouse on it, appears an explanation of the
word "Design".

thaks a lot for any help!

Try this. Go to Insert > HTML code fragment and paste the following code
snippet in the dialog box.

<style>
a:hover {color: #GGGGGG; font-weight: bold;}
</style>

thank you for attention DavidF, what happens when I did what you said is just
to appear the snippep onto the page, like a text box. What them?
Sorry my ignorance and my poor english.
Thanks again.

Move the code fragment box to some place on your page where it is not in the
way. You can resize the box and make it smaller if you want. It won't
matter. It won't be visible when you produce your web pages.

Then do a web page preview and mouseover your links on the page (point at
the links). The hyperlinked text will change color and become bold.

I forgot to mention that you must insert this code fragment on each page of
your site where you want this effect.

David, thank you for your efforts on helping. I believe I did not make me
clear.
See the exemple below, the words “margin guides†are in blue (like a hyper
link). When I click on it, appears the explanation for those words between
parenthesis.

That is what I need, to explain several words distributed in many of the
pages.

Exemple:
You can align or distribute objects either in relation to each other or in
relation to the margin guides (margin guides: Guides on the top, bottom,
left, and right sides of a page that are used to define its margins. Most
contents of a page are within the margin guides.).

Thanks again.

Sorry, I did misunderstand. I am not sure how to do exactly what you want to
do.

You might want to try a tooltip...not quite the same, but it might suffice.
Look at this:

Google "javascript tooltips" or "javascript dynamic text" for other free
scripts.

Perhaps someone else will have a better idea.
