Giving text links a tooltip:
Having done the above, the procedure for giving text links or image maps a scrolling tooltip is virtually identical to that of the standard tooltip script. Simply insert the below into either the <a> tag of the text link, or right alongside the href attribute of each image spot:

onMouseover="showtip2(this,event,'Visit Dynamic Drive for DHTML Scripts!')" onMouseout="hidetip2()"

with the part in red representing the text you want shown inside the tip. For a detailed demonstration of each procedure, view the tooltip script page. Note that for the scrolling tooltip script, there is no need to "break" text if it is very long; it is a scrolling tooltip, after all!
