i am tying to find a way to insert an external comment on a web page that
everyone can see when the mouse runs over the cell or cell content in a table.

what should happen is a balloon pops up with additional comments that the
visitor can see. i have seen it done in other web pages but frontpage 2003
does not make any reference to this component-other than hidden comments that
only fellow web designers can see

Add a title attribute.
Like this:
<a href="whatever" title="this is a link to a real nice page">nice page</a>

Were you ever able to create this "mouseover balloon" you were talking about?
I am interested in the same thing using FP 2003, but cannot get it to work. I
have an image map and would like to have mouseover box as the mouse passes
over regions of the state. Please let me know either way, Thanks!

Hotspots tool tips makes it super-easy to add pop-up tooltips (not pop-up
windows) to image map hotspots...free FrontPage addin from:
