Ack -- no, the mouseover text works in IE, but I've never managed to get it to work in Firefox. There's a way you can view it in the code, though:
Hit Control + U to open a window showing the HTML source coding. Scroll down till you spot the date on the left side. (12:00 7th May, for example) Skip the block beginning 'td valign="top" Look at the block beginning 'a href="http://pics.livejournal.com ' etc. Scroll right to follow that line, and you should see the alt text.
It IS complicated, and it's a pain in the arse. But look at it this way -- open this site in IE, and you'll be able to go back over a year and read all the Sekrit Messages! That makes you one of the Cool Kids, right?
The first one (in sequence) to use mouseover text was this one:
