    If you are on a high enough version of CF, there is a tooltip tag.

    I am not sure if I am missing something in your post, however, use a javascript function in the onchange event to display whatever it is you want to play based on the selection.

    In the past, I had loaded the items of information for a <cfselect> drop down pick list in the cfm code on creation of the page. I also loaded associated information with the items in the list into an array.  Each time the user made a selection from the pick list, my javascript would parse through the array and find the appropriate information that matches to the selection and would display it on the page.

    I am not sure if that is what you were looking for, but it sure works.

    Best of luck.
