How do you...
 
I've seen people have in their sigs, when you hover over a certain piece of writing, it turns into a question mark and writing comes onto the screen:

What is it called and how do you do it?

[*title=][*/title]

Remove the '*', insert the "description" text after the '=' and the actual text inbetween the ']' and '['. :3
^ Quoting myself from another thread. Also, they're title tags.

You can also use the [???] tags instead of the [title] tags to remove those pesky dots. :D

Code:

[title="Hover text goes here"]Actual text goes here[/title]


..this makes: Actual text goes here

Or, to remove the formating: a.k.a the dots, you do the same what loliwin, or you could use the text-decoration: none css markup to create the same effect as above. Note that it has to be right before the actual text for it to work (basically, a psuedo target).

Wait what? What is this I don't even---

He's right ._. And here I was using a CSS hack.

Remove the * from both codes to get them to work.
Code:

[*title="Text that pops up when you hover over"](Text here)[/title]


Or without dots...

Code:

[*???="Text that pops up when you hover over"](Text here)[/???]


Fair warning. The without the dots version appears to count toward the character limit while the title version does not. Went over the limit trying to test. Believe me, I would've switched over if it didn't result in so many extra characters.
