There are three distinct tooltips that I frequently encounter. Each requires a different way to disable it. For tooltips on tabs: 1. Enter <about:config> in the Address Bar. 2. If you get a warning popup, dismiss it. 3. Enter browser.tabs.tooltippreview.enable in the search area. 4. Select the line for browser.tabs.tooltippreview.enable. 5. Right-click and select Toggle. For tooltips on the display of Web pages: 1. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences]. 2. On the left side of the Preference window under Category, select Appearance. 3. On the Appearance pane, clear the checkmark in the checkbox for Show Tooltips. (To clear it, merely click on the checkbox.) 4. Select the OK button. HOWEVER, I do NOT recommend disabling tooltips on the display of Web pages. For links to other Web pages, they often give more detail about the linked page before you select it. For images, they often describe the image. I use them on my Web pages to indicate my copyright notices for images I created; I also use them to warn users that selecting a link on one of my Web pages will open a new tab or browser window without leaving the current page. BEFORE viewing Web pages at Wikipedia: 1. On the SeaMonkey menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences]. 2. On the left side of the Preference window under Category, select [Advanced > Scripts & Plugins]. 3. On the Scripts & Plugins pane, clear the checkmark in the checkbox for Browser directly under "Enable JavaScript for". 4. Select the OK button. NOTE: Remember to restore the checkmark when you are through with Wikipedia. Other Web sites might not display correctly if JavaScript remains disabled. Also, this does not work on the current Wikipedia page if you do it after you have loaded that page; if you leave that page and then return to it, however, this should work. -- David E.
