Most of the input widgets ($edit-text, $checkbox, $radio) widgets don't 
support a tooltip="..." parameter (note: $select DOES have a tooltip="..." 
param)

However, as an easy workaround, you can wrap the input widget side a <span> 
that specifies a title="..." param, like this:

<span title="enter something here">
<$edit-text tiddler="temp" field="foo" />
</span>

Note: this method can also be used to add a mouseover tooltip to ANY 
content, even plain text.  Thus:

This text is before
<span title="tooltip text goes here"> foo baz baz mumble frotz gronk snork 
snerfle plurm </span>
this text is after

enjoy,
