While web sites can have them using dynamic programming concepts like java script, this isn't common and they will not usually read with a screen reader.

You anticipated my next question after both replies. Is this something
built into the screen reader, the tip itself, or into the website?
thanks for the wisdom.

I think the concept of tool tips is mostly a windows specific thing.
most of the windows screen readers will read hthem. I have never seen

Hi all,
Very general question related to an access matter.
Does voiceover, or any screen reader for that matter, use this as a

I have never been a windows user, but I have never come across the term
at all.
thanks,
Karen
