<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">

<area shape ="circle" coords ="124,58,8"
onMouseOver="writeText('Until the 1960s, Venus was often considered a twin sister to the Earth because Venus is the nearest planet to us, and because the two planets seem to share many characteristics.')"

It really requires little work:

<script type="text/javascript">
function show(Id) {
document.getElementById(Id).style.display="inline";
}
</script>
<span onmouseover="show('myImage')">Hover here to see the image!!!</span>
<img src="someImage.jpg" id="myImage" border="0" style="display:none;" />

Hello,

I am looking for something similar, and this is a good starting point. My quesion is how can I integrate this into php? so if I have a list of users all listed as


$first_name, $last_name, $department and $email

How can I have the mouseover be activated if you mouseover $first_name using php?

Thanks,

Aaron
