I have been some video tutorials I need to reference back to from time to time. Quite often I will need to find a particular technique but I can't remember which of the video files has the tutorial I need.

I have often seen how you can hover over a link (like this forum) or even in youtube and a little pop-up appears with more info. Something like that would be very helpful. Is that possible to do on the existing files I have on my computer.

I have macbook pro, snow leopard.

Cheers

1235516 2011-10-05 18:35:00 Are you talking about annotations? I believe you add them when uploading the video to YouTube. Then again I could be wrong.

I can't test the hovering thing here as I am on my iPod but I
assume that it is worked into the HTML and/or java script on this site.

Can you clarify what you aree trying to do please.

1235517 2011-10-05 18:44:00 I think they are annotations and I figured they were to do with online content. I am wanting similar for files on my hard drive. I might just have to create a notepad index. sam m (517)
