Hello again,

I have a table on my project with lots of rows.  
Each row contains text(titles). I want to display a popup page with text(lyrics) when you mouse over on each specific text title.  
Thing is I am not sure if the mouse over way is the best way to go, because maybe the resolution of the user will not  
be that high to display the whole text, I suppose opening a new popup window would be better?
