Not a hidden field, but a Label control. When the Label is placed within a
<DIV id="ttip"> or <SPAN id="ttip">, the onmouseover event can alter the
style:
if (document.getElementById("ttip").style == 'None') {
document.getElementById("ttip").style="Display";
}
else {
document.getElementById("ttip").style="None";
}
This example is a rough approximation, take it as a place to start. Perhaps
you'd want to also deal with onmouseout or add a settimer() to turn the
tooltip off after a few seconds.
Of course, it is possible to place a Label in the HTML within some other tag
such as <TD> and assign it the value title="some tooltip text". Then the
browser will deal with creating and destroying the tooltip for you.

Learning by doing!

I again learned something! Thanks.
My approach would have been like Rodj to assign a text to a label/variable
and use it to fill the title= attribute used in almost every HTML table tag.
<td title="my tooltip"> something</td>
