Text / Dialogue Boxes on links

Does PHP have the feature to display a text or dialogue box over a text link
(similar to javascript's 'onmouseover'). Ideally, I would like a simple message
when the mouse is over the link displaying a brief description of the link.
However, not like javascript's alert() function which is quite annoying, don't
want users to have to close pop-up windows or click OK everytime.
Thankyou.

Dado was correct, but it's HTML, not PHP. Newer browsers will echo
"title" statements just as they do over "alt" statements for graphics.
