Can you share the syntax error you are getting and maybe the lines you added?

Thanks for the reply, but I've got it sorted now. I was placing the last line of code in the wrong file. All sorted and working ok now. But thanks again for the response.

This is a very cool addition to any page.

Just Wondering, How can I change the background color of the pop up mouseover and is there a way to increase the width of the pop up mouseover.

Thanks!

This is all handled by the javascript library overlib, details on its use can be found on the overlib website.

Actually, you go to file... /javascript/overlib/overlib.js

open in texteditor and change the defaults. Unless you dont want to change the code file.

You may also change behavior to single pop ups... for that, go to the site larry pointed out.

Cool stuff. you can even add links to these little pop ups (google ads, for instance)
