we're going to use the <span> tag and the title attribute to make writing appear when you hover your mouse over something

1. write something in a code page that you want to hover your mouse over
   when you hover your mouse here, something appears!
2. write this round the text you want to hover your mouse over:
   when you hover your mouse <span title="hello!">here</span>, something appears!
3. save the code, open the page in a browser, and hover your mouse over the text
   try hovering your mouse over "here":
   
   when you hover your mouse over here, something appears!
   
   whatever you write after title= in the first <span> tag will appear when you hover.
