However if you want to do something similar with links on posts/pages/text widget then you need to set a title attribute in your anchor tags. Here's an example that hopefully won't get mangled by the forum:

<a href="#" title="this is the hover text">this is the link text</a>

I would like those hover boxes to contain short descriptions of those pages. i.e. When I hover over "Body Language" I want the hover box to say "Information on Spa Treatments and Products."

I've looked through all the edit options in the pages menu and couldn't find anything. Perhaps this should be posted in the appearance forum, but it seemed like I might need to edit the CSS for this.
