Heya. That tooltip text that pops up when you run over any link on the Vertex CPanel skin.
How is that done? A script of some sort? Or is is a simple tag?

The simplest way to add a tooltip is to add the title attribute to your link. So your link would read
<a href="somelink" title="This is a tooltip">

If you want to use DHTML to do the popups, I'd suggest Overlib <http://www.bosrup.com/web/overlib/>. It's a free Javascript library for cross platform popups.
