Mouseover - display text?

[sashasmommy]

My friend is looking for a script that works in Netscape where you can mouse over a link and it will display text on the page (not a graphic). Any ideas?
Thanks!

how much text are we talking? if it's just a word or two, why not just use the alt tag?

example:

<a href="file.htm" alt="link to file">link text</a>

Apparently it's a lot, he wants to display it in a box. He didn't want to use graphics because he thought the files would be too big because it is a lot of text.
