Am trying to make a mouse-over using text as the original and want a picture to appear when you run the curser over the text. I know I must be able to do this, but each time I try to do this it doesn't work. Can someone help me in very simple terms as I think my brain is muddled. Thank you for your help.

Text is "pediatric" , picture is of a pediatric wheelchair

I know you believe you understand what you think I said...but I am not sure you realize that what you heard is not exactly what I meant.

Thanks Tassietiger, Um, I couldn't see any pictures popping up. I need the picture of the wheelchair to pop up when you place the cursor over the text. I read all the instructions in the help files and watched bruzer's video on doing images, but can't seem to make it work. I don't know any code, just using VSD. Thank you for your help. It's my brain that needs some work here I guess.

Sarah I believe you can replace the image with text and get the same results. :)

Sarah I'm making another if you wait a minute or two, just to show you how to use the text link to mouse over...:)

Thanks so much, Bruzer. I will try this. It may take me a while as I move rather slowly. But I will get it eventually. Thanks. I appreciate all you do to help all of us. Great forum, great people.

@Bruzer That page asks for a userid and password.

I found this sample of a "onmouseover" effect using CSS.

Sample has image and text links.
