Create Alternate Text Using Tooltip

 

Point to any of these words and you will get a tip tag that gives you the Spanish equivalent. Do not click the word, just point to it.
 

John

How

Joe

Green

 

 First build your page and insert a table if you want one. Click in the location that you will want the text tag. Go to the HTML view in FrontPage. Put this code in the table

<p align="center"><font face="Arial"><a href="http://www.y.com"
title="Juan">John</a></font>

Note:  If putting it in a table the code goes between <td> and </td>     You will need to delete  &nbsp;    and put in the code above

 <td>&nbsp;</td>         changes to

 <td><p align="center"><font face="Arial"><a href="http://www.y.com"
title="Jose">Joe</a></font></td>

This works because the words are a link and you are showing a title of the page. To help prevent a student from clicking on the word, I went back to Normal view and highlighted the word, made it a different color from blue and removed the underlining. I also made the web address go to something that was not a real page.

The problem is if they actually click the word, it will go to a "page not found message"

I made the word Green above link to this page and that seems to be satisfactory.

Accents -- I put Cómo in as the alternate text and notice that the accent does not show up in the tag. You may want to type the Spanish in and use the English as the alternate text.
