How do I create a tooltip in an OO word processor HTML document?

Asked by Deedon

I'm creating a web page in OpenOffice word processor. I would like to create some tooltips for links to show what the web site is all about. How do I go about creating the tooltips? Do I need any additional programs or widgets or whatever?

I typed in google "html tooltips" and got lots of links on how to do this.

One quick way is to edit the hyperlink in OOo (right click and select Edit Hyperlink) and add a Name but put the tooltip text you want in the Name box. The use a text editor to change NAME= to TITLE= in the HTML.

One word of caution. If you use Edit hyperlink in OOo again, it will remove this attribute.

Hope this helps
