Changing MouseOver Text for Links

Depending on whether a link is internal or external, when you rollover a link with your mouse, the mouseover/rollover text that appears above the link displays either the name of the local wiki page (in case of internal links) or displays the external link saying it will open in a new window (in case of external links e.g http://www.google.com will open in a new window).

In order to change the mouseover/rollover text for these links, the span title tags need to be used.

Example:
The following link:

[http://www.gunthergifts.com/flasks.html <span title="Flasks"> Liquor Flasks</span>]

would make the words 'Liquor Flasks' an external link to http://www.gunthergifts.com/flasks.html, while rolling over the words 'Liquor Flasks' would display the text 'Flasks' only.

This would then display as the following: Liquor Flasks
