Hi everyone,
The next thing I want to learn more about is Tooltips, as seen HERE
Does anyone have any helpful info, links or tutorials for creating them?
Also is it possible to click a link that displays a custom sized lightbox or modul box (eg. like Rokbox) with a another larger list of clickable links in it?
Many Thanks,
- Scott

Hi Scott,

Check out the following documentation:
www.w3schools.com/tags/att_standard_title.asp

Tooltips by NoNumber is a really simply to use, flexible tooltip extension. Take a look:

Warm Regards,

Hi Tessa,
Thanks for your reply and the w3schols info, ill check it out.
I had a look up on the JED just a little while ago and saw that exact same top rated extension from the same people that do AMM so I paid them the 10euro for the pro version. I should be able to get all the info I need with this from here.
Many Thanks,
- Scott

Hi Everyone,
I've mastered using tooltips with images, and with text with a title, and I'd like to learn more. I'd like to know about more advanced use of the same tooltips concept, for example - using fixed tooltips with input fields and page or external links, and also how to use them for login - as used on the rockettheme site for instance.
Many Thanks,
- Scott

Hi Scott,

As for advanced areas of the extension, have you checked if there are any tutorials on their site, of if they have a support forum for getting this information? :-)

Hi Tessa,
Sorry for the slow response.
I posted on the forum of the extension as you suggested. - well I did purchase it.
They did not have any documentation for this, they just said you can do pretty much anything with it, but you have to play around with it for yourself.
I don't really have any specific use in mind right now, I'm just curious.
- So I'll just leave it here for the time being until I have a specific use I need help with. Thanks for your help.

Hi Scott,

Good luck, sometimes playing around with the extension is the best way to learn it, then saving your questions in a support forum for last. :-) It makes it easier on their end to help solve your issues when you have a good understanding of where all the options are. :-) Have a wonderful day! :-D
Warm Regards,
