All -- I've been working on a simple tooltip widget and thought I'd release it into the wild. It builds on the features found in Prototype 1.5.0 RC0 and Scriptaculous 1.6.1. Very basically, it walks down a list of links and if they have id, href and title attributes, displays a tooltip on mouseover. Styled with a few lines of CSS and background images. You can demo it here: http://boygeni.us/tooltips/ And the Subversion repository can be found here: https://boygeni.us/svn/tooltips/tags/release-1.0/ Any feedback (comments, suggestions, flames, etc.) would be appreciated! ;) Thanks, Ed C. _______________________________________________ Rails-spinoffs mailing list Rails-spinoffs-1W37MKcQCpIf0INCOvqR/iCwEArCW2h5@public.gmane.org http://lists.rubyonrails.org/mailman/listinfo/rails-spinoffs
nice work - one suggestion would be to constrain the tooltip to the viewport''s dimensions, e.g. so it doesn''t cause scrollbars or appear off the edge of the screen On 5/3/06, Ed C. <defeated2k4-Re5JQEeQqe8AvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org> wrote:> All -- > > I''ve been working on a simple tooltip widget and thought I''d release > it into the wild.
