Quite easy to do with some CSS.
<a href="#" class="details">
regular content
<div class="details">hidden until mouse overed</div>
</a>
And the CSS would be something like:
a.details
{
position: relative;
}
a.details div.details
{
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
display: none;
}
a:hover div.details
{
display: block;
}
This is a simplified example, but works without Javascript, and if the
browser doesn't support CSS, the hidden details are just displayed
normally, which is the best fail method I think.
Thanks,
