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.

Thanks for sharing…

Regards
Rob.

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?

Yeah, you can stick the CSS in the header of the page.
The answer to the second question would be yes.

Is there a way to create the pop-up without using CSS? In other words, to keep the code right on the HTML page?

Also, if I already have a CSS style sheet, would i be taking the code you prescribe and enter it in there next to the other style info?

Thanks!

That won’t work. In your browser, do View Source, and look at me Close Me link’s code.

well, I must do something wrong… it works when the link is outside the tooltip, but not when inside )-:
Here’s my code :

Eat your vegetables. Brush Your Teeth
CLOSE ME

Is there something I can change ?

Thanks again.

Hi Mat,

Thanks for the comment.
Take out the onmouseout event.
Create a link. and put the onmouseout event in an onClick event in the A tag.
