clueTip - flexible, enhanced tooltip


Average rating
(22 votes)

The clueTip plugin allows you to easily set a link, or any other element, to show a tooltip when the user's mouse hovers over it. If the link includes a title attribute, its text becomes the heading of the clueTip.

The contents of the clueTip can come from a separate file via AJAX, an element on the current page when set to "local," or the title attribute with a designated delimiter.

The clueTip offers smart positioning relative to the linked element or the mouse.

It takes advantage of Brian Cherne's fantastic hoverIntent plugin if it's available (just include it in a tag if you want the clueTip to use it), and comes with many options, all of which are documented in the source comments and on the demo page.
