+Chaircity Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 (edited) I recently saw a cache listing where there was a small picture on the cache page. When you stop the cursor on the image, a text block appears with a message in it which disappears when you move cursor off of the picture. How did they do it? I assume with HTML code, right?

+andyakashrek Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Correct. The page has to be written in html and if I remember correctly the alt. Attribute has to be added to the img tag. Look online for examples. Quote Link to comment
+qq7 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 The simplest metod is to use the tag "Title" example: <img src="http://imageshack.com/a/img13/4820/s37b.gif" width="42" height="42" Title="HALLO andyakasherk"/> I haven't tryed in the GS submitting form but it is pure html ...

+dprovan Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 When I have questions like this, I tell my browser to show me the source for the page -- that's a right click option on the browsers I use -- and then search for the funny text. That shows you the HTML code used to produce the effect. Admittedly, I've been coding in HTML for 20 years now, but HTML's reasonably simple, and normally you can figure out what's going on by looking at the nearby code. Quote Link to comment
+Chaircity Posted January 20, 2014 Author Share Posted January 20, 2014 Thanks for the replies. I know a little HTML but was unfamiliar with the "title" attribute. I tried it and it works. Another mystery solved Quote Link to comment
