<div>
Button does not support the onMouseover nor the onMouseout event handler. A possible solution is using an image instead of a button. Then you can add the alt property (hint box) which displays the text you want. <br />
<br />
e.g.<br />
<br />
&lt;input type=&quot;image&quot; src=&quot;myimage.gif&quot; alt=&quot;this text will be shown after hovering for a few secs&quot;&gt;<br />
<br />
So you could use a button like image for this. You can use the onClick event handler or other event handlers with this of course. <br />

&lt;/table&gt;<br />
<br />
I know that I need to use onMouseover and onMouseout to make this cell change when the mouse is placed over it but I can't work out how.<br />
<br />
How do I attach an explanation to what the button does when the mouse goes over it.<br />
<br />
Thanks very much in advance.<br />
