Image "tooltips"?

[Susie]

I have no idea if you would call what I'm looking for a tooltip or not. And I'm not even sure it's a Javascript thing. I was hoping you guys could help me figure this out. You know how sometimes you can hover over a link and it'll show you an image of the webpage it's linking to? I have 2 clients who are requesting this type of feature. I've searched, but I haven't found anything and it's probably because I don't know what to call it.

 

Help?

Okay, I now have an example of what one of my clients wants.

Hi Susie, tweeted this a moment ago, but I'll post here for posterity too.

 

One solution is here:

Option two is what I think you're looking for.

Thanks!! I will take a look at this and everyone's suggestions! Isn't Twitter great?

You didn't like the Jessica Beil's butt one? You can do it with pure CSS also. Although the jQuery one ain't bad!
