I know how to do it with discrete data. Here is an example
data = Table[Tooltip[Sin[x]], {x, -Pi, Pi, Pi/100.}];
ListPlot[data, Joined -> True]
And now if you move the mouse over the plot, the y-value (i.e. sin(x) )
value will be displayed, here is a screen shot

But with the direct plot command, I still can't figure it
Plot[Tooltip[Sin[x]], {x, -Pi, Pi}]
will display "Sin[x]", instead of the current value of it. As shown here:

I tried using Dynamics and Annotation with Mousover to get it to work, but
no luck. I am sure some Mathematica expert here will have an answer on how
to do it with a direct plot command instead of discrete plot.
