    I would like to see the development of a macro  that is responsive to mouse-over events!  I can envision a lot of ways that I would be able to use this to provide feedback and interactivity to my students on my wiki pages. 

    I've looked at a lot of the Confluence User community pages, and it is clear that a lot of folks who are good Javascript or HTML programmers can import scripts into Confluence that will, for example, show a "tip" when there's a mouse-over a text or image, or display an image on a mouse-over.  While the mouse-over command and response sequence itself looks pretty short and simple, the jargon that describes where to load the script and properly describe the commands so a wiki page can access it is way over my head. 

    Thanks!
