I am working on on a site which uses a hover state on a link within copy (a window pops up, much like a tool tip) as well as a standard link (which takes the visitor to another page).
The distinction is that the hover link is identified by having a perforated line running underneath it and the standard link has the standard 'underline'.
As these links have two distinct differing actions is there any best practice or reading material which suggests they should look visually different?
Just for info - I believe the text links should be handled differently as they have separate actions and behave differently.
Cheers
