Hi Patrick,

Is there a way to force the tooltip to appear above an iframe? (I know hated iframes) Using the tip within a narrow iframe, but want the tooltip to show in its full height over this.
This might not be possible?

This article really helped me solve the problem. The best part is that it’s very simple, as opposed to
other approaches which inject div(s) on mouse over and remove them on mouse out. The problem with
that approach was that pop-up wouldn’t show up always.

Great Job Patrick !

Hai Patrick,

I have got a interspire webshop and want to add tooltips in it.

I want people to see a picture when going over the question mark.

What code (css and html) should i use and where do i have to put it?

This is fantastic, and very simple. But how do you put links in the text that appears in the mouseover popup? for example: Eat Veg, Brush Teeth (Read More…)

Images might be useful also. Help appreciated.

Thanks,
Adam

Patrick,

I have to say that this mod makes me smile everytime I use it.

I am using it to change a text message in a picture of a TV, like changing channels, it’s awesome.

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for posting this html/css code, it makes the world a better place.

Best Regards,

Thanks so much for sharing this. I’ve been looking for a simple CSS Tooltip Popup for my Senior Chat site for ages.

Hey Patrick,

Thanks very much for the help. I’ll be using the pop-up tool tip very soon. I already implemented it, I am just not finished with the design of the page I am working on. Apart from tooltips and widgets, do you have any suggestions for other cool things i can add to my page?
