I'm having a problem implementing this code. I'm running Windows NT. I followed the tutorial for Dynamic Floating Tool Tips and everything worked perfectly, until I got to Embedding Table Cell in a Layer part. I have NN4.7 and IE5.0. Here's the deal--I copied the code exactly as written. When viewed in IE, it works exactly as it does in the example. I get the red box with text just under my link in the table. However, in NN, I get balck text, about twice as far under the link, and no red box. What I don't understand is that I'm copying it from your page while viewed in NN, and your example works fine in NN. I don't understand why mine doesn't. It even previews correctly in Adobe GoLive's preview function. I've copied my source code for the file below. If you can, PLEASE let me know what in the world is wrong, as this is the exact feature I want to implement on my site.

Thanks!
