Actually the title attribute IS a part of the HTML specification:

Although by the logic presented I would wonder why Netscape supports the
"layer" tag, the "spacer" tag, the "multicol" tag and many others.


Get off the high horse - Netscape is no better than MS at standards
support.

I haven't installed Netscape since about version 4.79, but my anchor
tags DO display tooltips from the title attributes in Moz/Firebird 0.61.
I believe they were also doing that in Moz version 1.3/1.4 before I
switched exclusively to Firebird.
