Making this change to the code seemed logical to me (and worked) but maybe I don’t understand what I’m doing (I know nothing about java!)

    var cluetipClose = function() {
      $cluetipOuter
      .parent().hide().removeClass().end()
      .children().empty();
      //if (tipTitle) {
      //  $this.attr('title', tipTitle);
      //}
      if (tipTitle) {
        $this.attr(titleAttribute, tipTitle);
      }
      $this.css('cursor','');
      if (defaults.arrows) $cluetipArrows.css({top: ''});
    };

BTW I love this utility - thanks for all the great work.

I know there are other plugins that already do this, but I would like to have one plugin for all instead 5 different plugins!

I find your work great, but I have some problems, similar as to.rben has.
please visit http://www.sportni-klubi.com (remove the dash - Idon’t want this site to be in SE yet)

if you check the top users tabs on the right you will notice, that whem first tab is loaded, the cluetips doesnt work. On the second tab it is working, and reloading the first tab will work too… I am not sure this is a tabs plugin’s issue or cluetip’s.

The second thing, the problem like to.rben has… when I do ajax call for cluetips, when I hover the link, and then remove the pointer from the link, the cluetip obviously dissapears, but when the ajax call gets the response, the cluetip reapears again only with empty headings!

The second problem I am having is that link’s click is not working if the cluetip’s content is from the same address as the link’s href. I am processing the right response to the clutip in my html file, so if the requested handler was from ajax I show one content and if calling the link regularry I display another content. So the same url produces different results. So I had to comment out the line in the plugin where you check the href and ajax destination. It would be nice to have an option so I can disable this behaviour if I like.

Next problem I am having. When Pointing link’s href to an image (.jpg or another kind) I get as a result an encoded data string and not the actual image!

Now, some more wishes
1. It would be great to have an option: simple cluetip, just for regular tooltips, only a rectangle with simple border and a text inside. With fadein and fadeout effect.
2. To be able to set the cluetips behavior so that it moves along the mouse when shown (like regular tooltips).

Ok, I think this is enough. Oh, and I am using ver 0.9!

Thanks for your input. As soon as I named it as an ID it worked.

Cheers,

Your selector, $('cluetip-outer'), is telling jQuery to look for a tag named “cluetip-outer”. In our case, you can use an ID selector instead: $('#cluetip').bgiframe();

Hope that helps.

Thanks for your response. Yes that is exactly the problem I am experiencing. I downloaded the bgiframe plugin and I am trying to figure out how to use it in the jquery.cluetip.js script. I am placing this: $(’cluetip-outer’).bgiframe(); but I am not sure if it is cluetip-outer the right &ltdiv&gt. Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Gerardo

I’m guessing that you’re seeing the problem in Internet Explorer 6. If that is the case, it’s a well known problem. The <select> element will always have a higher z-index than any other element on the page, except for an iframe.

The good news is that this issue is easily solved with the bgiframe plugin by Brandon Aaron.

Impressive work!! I am trying to implement clueTip in my website but I am running into the following problem. When the clueTip shows up and it happens to be above a combo box, this combo box shows up above the clueTip window. I thought I was doing something wrong in my code so I modified your index.html demo page and added the following html next to your link “simplest example there is” : 12 and I got the same problem. I called this page from different PC’s with no luck but in one of them. I have looked at all the properties for IE and they seem to be the same in PC that works and in the PC that doesn’t. Have you seen this problem before? Do you have any words of wisdom that might help me?

Thanks,

Gerardo.
