I am attempting to to use ColdFusion instead of Javascript to display text when a user &quot;hovers&quot; over my image. This way I can create smaller file to display as opposed to loading up a huge image file that also includes the text.<br><br>Any ideas would be helpful
 
maybe cf_coollink could do that ?? but it actually uses jscript ...
 
You can't use ColdFusion directly for something like this because CF is a server-side processing language, and &quot;hovers&quot; are client side.&nbsp;&nbsp;Javascript is the best choice for something like this.<br><br>cf_coollink and other custom tags that do this are available on the Allaire site at <A HREF=" TARGET="_new"> but like iza said, they all use javascript.&nbsp;&nbsp;(They do help shorten development time, though...:)<br><br>DM
 
Thanks again to both iza and DarkMan...<br><br>Again saving my butt!
