Is it possible to have the info from title="" stay up until the user mouses out?

I don't think so. It is not meant to stay long enough to read a book, just a short ID type of message.

I don't think so either, but instead of using TITLE, there is a <SPAN> attribute (I forget what it is, Vladdy does though...) that creates a tooltip that is just a little bit different from the TITLE attribute but basically the same, and it stays there until you mouseout. Also, you can use JavaScript-tooltips instead, too. Even though both of the above suggestions may not work in all browsers, the second suggestion is probably more supported among different browsers.

LOL I sure do not mind, however I'm pretty much done with the new version of tooltips code that is compatible with title attribute, easier to install and has a few new features:

This is what I use. You can position it where you want left, right, top. bottom. change colors. It remains visible as long as your mouse in it. Check it out
