decent javascript tips box?

Sic · 14 Sep 2006 at 13:05

right, i've found a load of crap ones, easy to implement, don't give me decent stylistic control etc...but does anyone have a link to a decent one? ones like these bad boys would be great. i'd steal them, but i can't view the JS.

thanks

(by the way, i'm so bad a Javascript it hurts...so minimal javascript knowledge would be a bonus)

Very easy to alter the CSS and JavaScript. I've done a bit of a hack of this and now have a version where the tooltip now only appears for links which have the title attribute. Otherwise it won't display. In the default version, if there is no title attribute, it will display an empty box.

Let me know if you're interested.

they're kind of what i'm after. i dont want to have the link in there, and i want to be able to put html in there, so i get a header and body text etc.

i'm bookmarking that though because they're ace

You won't be able to add body text and a header, because it's not a seperate page. However, you will be able to style it however you like using the power of CSS

you see that thing to the right of the page that says "Download"? That, oddly, takes you to the section of the page where you can download the code for those tooltips.. how weird is that?
