I like clueTip, but there are two things I wish it could do:
- display the tooltips only after a small delay (configurable, although
500ms seems reasonnable)
- automatically hide the tooltip whenever the mouse is pressed: if you
have set the tooltip on an input field, it really
should disappear when you type to give the focus to the input. Perhaps
same on keypress events
I am not sure, also, whether it can take only part of the loaded ajax
document (similar to what load() allows). I use that
in my application where I have a single file containing all the tooltip
texts, and select the one I want. Since the file is
cached on the client, I don't have too many http requests, and I found it
more convenient for internationalization.
I might, of course, have misunderstood the documentation and code, sorry if
that's the case.
