Hi Valerio, Christoph and the rest of the community reading this :-)
Today i started re-using the Moo-More Tips after a long time over at a
new project and my javascript console got spammed by "element.getParent
() is not a function" errors.
After recognicing me using the .1 version i fastly upgraded to moo-
more 1.2.4.2 but got the same error still (seeing this problem seems
to be not unknown as the .1 differs from .2).
To work around this and to be able to continue with my work i wrote
this small little Class, extending the Original MooTools Class and
adding a fix to the error throwing part.
Maybe this is of use for someone else than just me so here we go:

var TipsFixed = new Class({
Extends: Tips,
/*

fireForParent: function(event, element){
if( element && typeof element.getParent() == 'function'
)
{
parentNode = element.getParent();
if (parentNode == document.body) return;
if (parentNode.retrieve('tip:enter'))
parentNode.fireEvent
('mouseenter', event);
else this.fireForParent(parentNode, event);
}
else return;
}
});
Just use "new TipsFixed()" instead of "new Tips()" and you are done.

Timo
