been trying for a half a day to get this simple pop up to work - can't figure it out for my life

http://www.enhancedwireless.net/Company/TEST.shtml

Rollover the word ODMA (in parentheses in the first sentence) and it should pop up a small gif...but this doesn't work on Safari nor Opera (which after it pops up, won't go away, or come back) and it positions itself all the way to the left blue nav bar in FF and far right in Netscape (All latest browsers on MAC). I'd like the pop up gif to position itself with its bottom right corner just above the "A" in ODMA.

In my css style sheet, I'm using the screen2 code.

Any thoughts?

Thanks much

The coding for the pop-up is really weird. You're using negative values for the positioning of the non-display AND display states. Usually, negative values are used to just hide a layer.

You might take a look at this: http://psacake.com/web/jl.asp
It's a much simpler way of doing it.

Good Luck!

You didn't enclose the image in span tags:

IWICS' primary goal is to create wireless technology using Opportunity-Driven Mulitple Access (<a class="info" href="../Technology/basics.shtml">ODMA<b><span><img src="../images/ODMA4popup.gif" alt="ODMA Routing" title="ODMA Routing" /></span></b></a>

You'll also want to change the width from 15em to the dimensions of your image.

Tried again - unfortunately, doesn't work at all, won't pop up or anything, on my mac's Safari, Netscape, FF (all the latest versions) and does this (see attachment) fractured view in the latest Opera.

Sounds simple but doesn't seem to work as I have it.

Don't know if this sheds any light, but rollover "71 countries"

and see what I want to do - got this to work for my swf file using the css in my first post, but can't seem to make a simple gif pop up.
