There are many tweaks which can be set to customise it to your needs.  As shown above BoxOver is set through a tag’s “title” attribute. 

Some of the salient features are:

  • Optimised for lowest CPU usage with lightning response times
  • Tested in all major browsers
  • Easy to set up with only a basic knowledge of HTML
  • Open source
