switch off yellow text box above my cursor in published website, how ?

I made this website with iWeb. http://web.me.com/fillieverhoeven/3dfv/
Question on how to turn of the yellow appearing text box above the cursor showing the linked addresses.

When I move my cursor over any hyperlink a yellow textbox appears above the cursor. Ugly and annoying, I do not see this in other iWeb sites.

Please anyone, how can I switch this off, I have tried almost everything, been working on it for days and half of my time spent is on how to switch this of.

Help very appreciated,
Francois

Do you mean the yellow boxes that contain the information about where the hyperlink will take you, such as the pagelink? If so You can't turn that off and really you don't want to as screen readers use this information to tell visually disabled (is that right way of saying it?) visitors to your site can find their way around. Accessibility is the key, and in some countries it is law!

thanks, I see I need work to do for every page, do I understand right ?
Isn't there a more simple way to get rid of the title tag. I find it very ugly and in my case my audiance won't like it. Designers and architects usually do not like these kind of cheap eyesores ...lol.

What I wonder is why I do not see these in other iWeb pages on the web, why is it only me ?

yes, you need to add it to every page. just copy&paste the HTML Snippet from one page to the next.

You are not too old are you Toad ....lol. Seriously, I am happy with your comment. I will work on the texting and introduction page to avoid major functionality problems with basics like visability and easy to read text.
