How do I create hover text over a text link?

Hi all,

Quick and hopefully easy question.

I'm trying to create hover text over a text link.

For Example, If i were to use the following code:

PHP Code:


		
			
<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$post[userid]" target="_blank"><img src="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/greentek/profile.gif" border="0" alt="Click Here to See the Profile for $post[username]"></a>

The text displayed while hovering over the mouse would be "Click Here to See the Profile for so and so"

That's exactly what I want, but without the image Using Text instead

For Example: (yea..I know this won't work, but hopefully it'll demonstrate what i'm trying to accomplish)

PHP Code:


		
			
<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$post[userid]" target="_blank">$post[username]<alt="Click Here to See the Profile for $post[username]"></a>

I'd like to put this in my postbit template so users can just click the username of a poster & get to their profile.

any suggestions?

inspired by the layout of vbullitentemplates.com i modified my postbit template so it looks like this:

what that bit of code does is creates a link to a users profile by clicking their username which when hovered over produces the text "Click Here to See the Profile for so and so".
