Make an image appear when passing over a text with themouse

[deufette]

Hello,
I would like to make an image appear in a html page when passing over a text
with the mouse.

The idea is the following:
My site has a left menu bar with 5 chapters. There is a also a special
structure in 8 parts that describes the content of the site and people would
have liked to see inside each page, for each link, to which of the 8 categories
it depends.
I have a scale with 8 colored boxes (8 different colors). When I pass the
mouse on a link, I would like to have the correct box of the scale highlighted.
Is that possible???
If not, do you have any suggestion? (using the color system)
Thank you very much for your help.

This is just a text based disjoint rollover.

There is a good disjoint tutorial here -

Hi.
I am having a bit of a guess at what you want to from your opening
statement/comment.
In simple terms, when someone puts the mouse over some TEXT on your website,
an image appears somewhere on the page ????
If this is so, you must first make the text into a HYPERLINK........
First thing is to select the text, but as it is not linked to any html file,
just add the following script in the link field box, javascript:; (make sure
you get the colon - : and semi colon - ; the right way round.
This will add the NULL LINK to the text that you can then simply add
behaviours to.
You can change whether the text is underlined or not etc. etc. in either a
style sheet or in the MODIFY-PAGE PROPERTIES and then select LINKS
Then you can add a behaviour to it like showing an image.
Unlike with an image where you can just select it and add a behaviour, like a
swap image to it.
Also, there are different ways to do this.
If you want an image that is hidden initially but appears on mouse over, you
really need to put it in a layer, and then assign the behaviour to the text to
show/hide the layer with the image in it.
If you want it to SWAP to the correct image you must have a default image
somewhere that the behaviour triggers to swap with the new image you want.
Hope this helps.
