Making a pop up info box on VF page

Hello,

 

My client wants me to make it so that when you hover your mouse over a link, it'll pop up a small window that displays information about that record, much like how salesforce already does. What is the best way to go about doing this? Any responses would be appreciated.

You'll need to use a layer that gets rendered when the onhover event fires.

 

There's an example of popping up a layer on a button click in my blog post at:  http://bobbuzzard.blogspot.com/2011/02/layered-visualforce-lookup.html

 

You should be able to adapt this fairly easily to display when a hover event occurs.
