Consolidating output/ mouse over text

So I'm working on a roll table were I generate a group of monsters along with information about each individually
Was wondering if there is any formatting tips to have this not just look like a brick of text, or to "prompt" for more info for the monster if it more relevant than the others.
Theoretically mouse over text would be the perfect solution but I have a strong feeling it is not possible.

For example I generate a group of 10 monsters, but a 2 (i would not know which until after they have been generated) require more info/detail unquie to that monster. If that end up being a paragraph, have one for each monster on generate would destroy my ability to pars the simpler info quick and make it less readable. Looking for away to solve this if any are known.

    You actually can do mouseover text.

    Table: MouseoverTest
<div title="mouseover">Here's some text.</div>

    Replace the word mouseover with what you want to appear as the mouseover text, and the inner part with what you want to show.

    That said, unless it's a short note, I think it's more of a PITA to use the output that way. I just use line breaks, boldfacing, and other formatting to get a nicely formatted text block.

    Some formatting options:

    Line breaks: <br>
Boldface: <b>your text</b>
Italics: <i>your text</i>
Extra spaces: &emsp;

    Thank you that did work.
    Would the color of the output be changable?

    Table: Hardmode

    test

    Table: hdml_red
    font color=red>{$1}</font
    <^> only way itd post
    output is "hello_world>test" in black with no hover text

    Pretty sure you can't apply any formatting (not even bold or italics) to tooltip text without CSS, which we can't use here. You can color the regular text though.

    BTW to include formatting codes in a post here, enclose it within single quotes or use the Code formatting option.

    Table: MouseoverTest
<div title="mouseover">Here's some <font color=red>red</font> text.</div>

    Should have something workable after this, is there anyway have it that image is on one side and the txt with line breaks is on the other as not to throw of the formatting?

    'Table: Test
    [@BulbasaurEvolution]

    Table: BulbasaurEvolution
    [@BulbasaurGrouping]

    Table: BulbasaurGrouping
    [@2 BulbasaurData]

    Table: BulbasaurData
    image Bulbasaur [@BulbasaurGender]\n[@GenericData]

    Table: BulbasaurGender
    7:(Male)
    (Female)

    Table: GenericData
    [@Size]

    Table: Size
    I am [Teensy >> bold]
    I am [Tiny >> bold]
    2:I am [Extra Small >> bold]
    3:I am [Small >> bold]
    6:I am normal sized
    3:I am [Large >> bold]
    2:I am [Extra Large >> bold]
    I am [Huge >> bold]
    I am [Massive >> bold]'

    Text next to an image? I think you could embed it in a table, so the image is in one cell and the text in the other?

    <table><tr><td>your image</td><td>your text</td></tr></table>

    Have not tried that though.
