Postioning the alt text box
Hello everyone.
Is it possible to position the alt text box. I am using image maps at work and i would like the alt text to be above and to the left of the mouse.
I need this because we also use flash on the page and when the alt text diplays over the flash it will disappear when the flash images change.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. thanks

As far as I know, that is a browser setting maybe...? There might be a hack for it.

Tooltips are controlled by the OS. You can't change them.

Traditional image maps are outdated. It's best to use CSS techniques instead.
