Overflow allows you to specify what happens if an object is larger than the layer that holds it. Clip defines the part of a layer that is visible. Pagebreak forces a page break when printing the page. It sounds like a nice feature, but is not supported by level 4 browsers, so at present there is no point in using it. Cursor changes the cursor when it moves over an object.
Filter applies special effects that apply to an object.
Note that this is only supported by Microsoft Internet Explorer. The effects will not appear in Netscape. Select the text with your mouse. Select a Style in the Styles Window by clicking it . Type several lines of text in the new Dreamweaver document.
