When I hover over thumbnails on my website the file names used to show. I asked my web developer to stop this happening but for some reason he refuses to tell me how he did it :S

Please can you tell me how this was done?

Thanks

Use the title attribute for a pop up "tooltip"

<img src="path_to_file" alt="Put some descriptive text here" title="Put whatever you want as a tooltip here" />

Or the alt tag if your using internet explorer.

It's either:

title="something you don't want displayed here"

as Chris pointed out...

or

alt="something you don't want displayed here"

Just remove the entire line from alt or title=" to "

Or the alt tag

alt ATTRIBUTE


The correct attribute to use is the title, this will show as a tooltip in all browsers.
Only Internet Exploder incorrectly shows the alt attribute text as a tooltip on images

Thanks guys

I'm a real novice and will be calling on your help in the near future

All I need to do now is find out where the alt tags are now lol

alt ATTRIBUTES!!!!
