Can you?  All I can seem to do is get

backslash N, a ltBRgt, a return in it does
nothing.  What I would like is:

and not:

You cant do these. While some browsers "sort of" support line breaks in tooltips (title and alt elements), it doesn't work well. Some browsers will display rubbish or nothing at all if you try.



And maybe < font color=brown > brown fox < /font....


Definately cant do that.

Or do I have to do "onmouseover ... JS .. winpopup
with text - but then the user would have to "close"
and there wouldn't be the nice 2/5 second delay for
popup/go away.


Check out the rather cool OverLib javascript that does what you want;
