    When you hover on a link, it will show title. I have added titles to my links and added a:title attribute with different color bg etc. However, its not working. Please help me guys. How do you customize link hover title?

    Example: Hover at “HOME” of this forum, you can see “home is where the heart is”. How do you change color, bg of “home is where the heart is” in CSS?

    Hi,

    You cannot change a links title attribute background colour with CSS. The title attribute is a tooltip displayed when you rollover a link or for users with screen readers.

    If you want to create a custom tooltip you will need to do this with Javascript.

    Hey, dude, check this out, and thanks for your reply.

    Nowhere in that article does it mention

    a:title

    it talks about using classes such as

    <a class="tooltip" href="#">

    with various spans

    and styling the classes and spans
