I'm attempting to use custom tooltips which partially overlap their associated markers. The problem I have is that the tooltips do not show properly when you mouse over the main 'head' of the marker, presumably because the tooltip itself is also present in the same location. The following example is built with some slight modifications to Mike Williams' code. The tooltips show properly when you mouse over the base of the markers or over the sidebar text. http://www.peterbertelsen.com/map-test/custom-tool-tip-a.html
Does anyone know how to eliminate the problem of the 'flickering' tooltip? It would be fine (even preferable) for the tooltip to go behind the marker, so maybe there is a solution using z-index? A good example of the effect I'm trying to achieve can be seen here: http://www.visitsweden.com/sweden/Accommodation/Accommodation-guide/ Another issue I have is the positioning of the tooltip. For my effect to work, the positioning has to be precise. The above example works in FF3, but the positioning is off in IE7, so I'm not sure whether the method I have used for positioning is the best one (I've basically just adjusted var pos in Mike Williams' code by a few pixels on the x and y axis. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps API" group.
