Text / Dialogue Boxes on links

What are the various (& best) ways to show a Text or Dialogue box over
a text link. I know a common method is to use the Javascript's 'onmouseover'
but are there any other ways of doing so, particularly just using html.
What I'm actually trying to do is to make a link from a pure php script page.

Thanks in advance.

HTML doesn't "show" anything, it just "tells" the user agent the structure
of the document. IOW, HTML is a markup language, not a programming one.

Markup doesn't care how the page is generated.
