Sounds more like a modal view, perhaps than a pop-up?

 Guys just a quick HTML / CSS question.

 I want to have some text pop up when I roll over some words.  I can create a
 div and turn the display on/off with the onMouseOver function.  

 The issue is that I want to have some HTML with an unordered list.
 Presently the pop up text is moving all the other text down when it appears.
 I want the new pop  up text to display over the top of the  current page.
 It's just like a more info box hat should pop up on the screen.  Anyone
 seems some good examples of this.

Hi Brian,

Is this the kind of thing you mean?

Take a look at http://www.harness.org.au/meeting-results.cfm?mc=VO150511ms=vic

If you put your mouse over the text 3WL 6 or similar you'll see what it does.

This uses YUI 2 (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/).  Given my time ago
I'd probably not use YUI, but I'm pretty sure jQuery or other
frameworks would have something similar also.

Andrew.

@Andrew

 This uses YUI 2 (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/).  Given my time again
 I'd probably not use YUI,

Just as an FYI / heads-up / IMHO, can I ask why? (no affiliation, just curious)

thanks

Hi Barry,

I've just found there to be a better community around jQuery.  I've
also found YUI a bit bloated and overly complex to configure.  Also
(and gut feeling - no hard evidence to back it up) l think jQuery
probably is a better thing to have on your resume - I don't see a lot
of demand for YUI.

Just my 2c anyway :)

Andrew.

P.S.  Referring to YUI 2 here - I kind of jumped off the ship before
YUI 3 came out.
