The website displays a very nice popup describing a feature when you hover
over a feature.

How can you do that (display such a popup)? I use HMTL title attribute but
the drawback on title is it goes away quickly and users does not have enough
time to read a long paragraph in the title.

Use the source, Luke. It's a mixture of CSS and JavaScript. Both of
these a client side, and off topic for this group. Suggest you go over
to comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets and comp.lang.javascript.

CSS and/or JavaScript.

jQuery has a hover function that will do this, if you are not interested in
writing your own (not advised).
