Text popup over any word/item/hyperlink
jodleren
I looked around, and can only find items for poping up images.
I want to have a text over a link, the when the mouse is over a link
(and later any text). Link the "alt" over a image (which btw does not
appear in Firefox)

I found a script by Thomas Brattli, which needed some heavy update,
but it works.
It would probably be too lonk to add here :) My test in total is 119
lines.

Have you tried to give the link element a title? As in:
<a href="http://www.nowhere.com" title="link to nowhere">nowhere!</a>
That usually works for me.
Do the same for images, of course also preserving the "alt", and
Firefox
will show that title.

empty the alt attribute or use it for what it is
and use instead the attribute title
<a href="p1.htm"><img src="1.jpg"
alt="menu 1" title="Go to page #1"></a>

A very simple example (whithout JavaScript !) :
<style type="text/css">
.bull_info { text-decoration: none; position: relative }
.bull_info span { position: absolute; top:.1em; left:2em;
color: blue; background: #ffc; padding: 5px; border: 1px solid;
display: none }
.bull_info:hover span { display: block; z-index: +1; }
</style>
<a href="#" class="bull_info"><img src="1.jpg" alt=""><span>Some
info</span></a>
