Well if i do insert comment then it puts dotted line and then a square box
with the editable text in it. The comment is seen all the time.I don't want
it that way. I only want to show a box of comments when the mouse is over
the text. Do you know how to do this?

Note that this will apply only for users who have balloons disabled,
however.
