Hi all,
I use IE, and I am trying to display a tooltip using javascript.
the problem is that the tooltip is not apearing where I want it to be.
I am getting the mouse location using clientX and clientY to display a div at the specified location, the problem happens when the page is scrolled down.
any help would be appreciated.
here is the code:
[HTML]<html>
<head>
<title>Style Example</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
function showTip(oEvent) {
var oDiv = document.getElementById("divTip1");
oDiv.style.visibility = "visible";
oDiv.style.left = oEvent.clientX + 5;
oDiv.style.top = oEvent.clientY + 5;
}
function hideTip(oEvent) {
var oDiv = document.getElementById("divTip1");
oDiv.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
</script>
</head>
<body>

<p>Move your mouse over the red square.</p>
<div id="div1"
style="background-color: red; height: 50px; width: 50px"
onmouseover="showTip(event)" onmouseout="hideTip(event)"></div>
<div id="divTip1"
style="background-color: yellow; position: absolute; visibility:
hidden; padding: 5px">
<span style="font-weight: bold">Custom Tooltip</span><br />
