with following code qTip works for me and generates tooltips:
$('a.ppname[rel]').live('mouseover', function() {
$(this).qtip( {
content : {
url : $(this).attr('rel')
},
position : {
corner : {
tooltip : 'leftBottom',
target : 'rightBottom'
}
},
style : {
border : {
width : 5,
radius : 10
},
padding : 10,
textAlign : 'center',
tip : true, // Give it a speech bubble tip with
// automatic corner detection
name : 'cream' // Style it according to the preset
// 'cream' style
}
});
});
});
But the qTip is not removed from the dom, well sometimes it just disappears and appears again and I get a lot of opened tooltips:
I looked at the dom, the qtip seems not to be removed but just set invisible. I need some simple logic to destroy the tooltip. E.g. if a.ppname
was focused and is not focused any more I could destroy it. But how would that look like in javascript? Any Ideas?
Update: I downgraded my jQuery to 1.3.2 recommended for qTip. I don't get tooltips that stay open anymore but there is another problem now:
The tooltips, which for now I can not delete seem to appear when I hover the next item. Please, provide some suggestions how to destroy the tooltip.
Update: using
$('a.ppname[rel]').each(function(){
in the first line of the code the problem is solved. But that leads to another problem another problem that I describe here qTip tooltip does not appear, jQuery. seems to be a dilemma^:D
You can remove the tooltip from the DOM by calling the destroy
method when the tooltip is hidden. Try this (kudos to Matt for his example that I copied and ammended):
$('a.ppname[rel]').qtip({
content : {stuff},
style : {stuff},
position: {stuff},
show: 'mouseover',
hide: 'mouseout',
onHide: function() { $(this).qtip('destroy'); }
});
