Mouse over and viewing information

I have a table of two columns. In the first coulmn I have some topic such as about me, contact info etc. I want to show the description of those topics in the 2nd column when I place the mouse pointer on a specific topic. How to do that?

It is not necessary to use table I guess, but I just want to show the description in the different place of the same web page.

Can you show us the sql query which you used to create your table.. that will give us a idea about your field names.

and you can show descriptions like this when you hover the mouse over a text. Nice and easy way of doing it...
<a title="Some description">Some text</a>

or else you can do it using layers if you have big amount of text to display.
