What's it called and where can I find one?

Hi All,

I'm working on a major redesign of one of my sites - long overdue it really looks bad.

I can't remember what it's called exactly that I'm looking for so I'll explain it...

I'm looking for the script/code that is similar to some of the contextual advertising where certain words are double underlined and clicking on them brings up a small dialog-type box nearby. The box simply disappears when the mouse is moved away.

I would like to use this type of feature where a term is the clickable item and it's definition is displayed in the box.

Does anyone have a script or code snippit that does this that I could use? What would you call such a thing (so I could maybe search for something)?

Thanks in advance.

Yay! Thank you, now I just have to fix my code.

This is a great solution as it would seem for SEO the definitions would be included.

Olaf, you're like an enclyclopedia of websites on web programming.

Thanks ;)

Maybe you should buy a domain like Olafpedia.com :P
