Cool DHTML Tooltip II - Arrow only on left-top position

[HolziFFB]

I like this script. It's great!

The problem is , that the little arrow appears only on left top position of the tooltip.
If there is not enough room to the right or to the bottom of the page the tooltip switches to the left or over the cursor. That's cool, but without arrow!
At this point I have to tell that I've read the note on top of the scripts page

OK- if it's possible to check the position of the tooltip to the window frame and switch it, it should be possible to tell the arrow pointer (or an mirrored version of it) where it has to appear.

It's not that important, but if anybody has a clue please answer here or notify me: holziffb@gmx.de

Thanx and greetings from Bavaria

This is noted in the description:

Note that the pointer image disappears if the tooltip is too close to the edges of the browser window.

When creating the script, accounting for the arrow showing up in all cases didn't seem too important versus the extra code and work required to realize it, so I decided to leave it out.

Thanx ddadmin for your fast reply (and the good work on this URL and the scripts ).

I've already thought that a lot of extra work was the reason. But I still hope that somebody reading this has a ready-to-use script that solves my problem.

heh funny, because i needed this functionality and just kind of made it and wondered if anyone (or the original author) had tried the same. I mainly wanted to get rid of the image usage and also be able to match colors with the tip box and the arrow. Here is my page that demonstrates it and you should just be able to pull the javascript and css from...

/tooltip.js
/tooltip.css

Demo located here...

one qurik... this only seems to work in FireFox 1.5? and not 1.0? but it works in IE fine, and i haven't tested opera. Any clues as to why this might not work in FireFox 1.0?

Thank you,

your script is easy to install, easy to use, and works pretty good !!!
Probaly you may take a look at my homepage. It's already implemented in the startpage.

It doesn't work in Opera. I need this also but want it all browser compatible. I myself am a Opera user and would really want this to work in Opera too!

What version of Opera is that? I tested the script in Opera 8.5 without problems...

Done, also added a screenshot of what Opera users see with the modified version.
