Default Display text onmouseover of radio button(ALT?)

I was thinking this was going to be easy but to no avail. I am needing to display TEXT when a user mouses over a specific radio button so that he is aware of the definition of using a particular button. I thought I could use ALT but that is not working. Any help or direction would be appreciated. Thank you.

Here is my HTML code:

<td align="left" colspan="2">
<b>Please choose Severity of Incident:</b>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;High&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="radio" id="checkseverityhigh" name="checkseverity" value="High"
alt="High – the impact of the offense is grave and or involves numerous parties, it is mandatory that our dept. investigate the incident">

&nbsp;&nbsp;Medium&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="radio" id="checkseveritymed" name="checkseverity" value="Medium"
alt="Medium – the impact of the offense is moderate and or involves several individuals and or requires our dept. to investigate with the doctor’s office">

&nbsp;&nbsp;Low&nbsp;&nbsp;<input type="radio" id="checkseveritylow" name="checkseverity" value="Low"
alt="Low – the impact of the offense is mild and can be handled within the doctor’s office and requires that the incident only be reported to our dept."><br><br></td>

Just in case anyone needs to know how to fix this problem. A fellow suggested that I user TITLE instead of ALT. That resolved my problem.

Thanks anyway!!
