Question

Is there anyways to add tooltips to a non hyper link?

ie . I want to have a mouse over tooltip when it goes over a text
I would appreciate a working example of tooltip that is not based on a hyperlink

Thanks

If by tooltip you mean the title attribute, you can apply that to a lot of different HTML elements. For example span:

<span title="This is my tooltip">roll over me!</span>​

However if you’re referring to javascript tooltips, then these can also be applied to elements other than the anchor:
