Hi all,
I'm new to javascript, so please be gentle. :-) I have a "tooltip"
script that I found somewhere, and I want to add html tags, links, etc.
to the tooltip window. I already use a couple of tooltip.js type files
in other sites, but I'm trying to learn. I'm assuming that it involves
innerHTML? Here's the html with the script, and thanks for any
info/advice.
