Roll over Menu Help

[digitman]

Hi,

I'm making a page where people can write an article, and then hit a button which re-generates the article, replacing the words with their synonyms. I want the synonyms to be highlighted, and when they roll their mouse over it I want them to see a floating menu with a list of other synonyms, and clicking any of those synonyms would replace the original synonym with the new one.

How can I code this floating menu to appear directly below the highlighted synonym in a div? Please help!

You would use the onmouseover event on the text, reveal the floating menu just below the clicked text, and ajax to receive the list of other synonyms.

reveal the floating menu just below the clicked text,

That is the part which I don't know how to do. How will I reveal it below the clicked text?
