Using Html And "title" Attribute I Created A Tooltip (popup). How Can I Change The Text Size Of This Tooltip?

I have to use only html and preferably the tooltip option (I need to make a popup balloon). I know I can do something like this: <A title="Go to chapter two"> chapter two</A> But how do I change the font size of the title (in this example it is "Go to chapter two"). Thanks!

Answer:Sorry, but it is not possible to change the text size of a simple tooltip like this, with html or css. However, you can make your own tooltip and then change the size of that. You are going to need some JavaScript and some css, but it's actually quite simple. I would recommend using these scripts: http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex5/dhtmltooltip.htm
