Tooltip problem

[kvdv]

Hi, I'm using the Boxover Tooltip script (http://boxover.swazz.org/), it looks great when it works, but often the tooltip is not loaded. I believe this has to do with the large images (150k or more) loaded too slowly, so the script doesn't run.

Does anyone know a solution or maybe another transparant tooltip script which doesn't have this problem?

Thanks,
Kris

Still there is http://www.bosrup.com/web/overlib/.

IMHO you have some problems with usage of this Boxover Tooltip. Both at left and right side of free space around image this tooltip is still active. I think it should be only over image?!

Yeah you're right... this is strange.
I did the following in my image_template.html:
--------
<div TITLE="header=[<IMAGE_TITLE>] body=[Click for previous photo]">
<a href="index.php?showimage=<IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID>">
<img src="images/<IMAGE_NAME>" width="<IMAGE_WIDTH>" height="<IMAGE_HEIGHT>" id="photo" />
</a>
</div>

<div TITLE="header=[<IMAGE_TITLE>] body=[Click for previous photo]">
<a href="index.php?showimage=<IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID>">
<img src="images/<IMAGE_NAME>" width="<IMAGE_WIDTH>" height="<IMAGE_HEIGHT>" id="photo" />
</a>
</div>

I would make it like this..

<a href="index.php?showimage=<IMAGE_PREVIOUS_ID>">
<img src="images/<IMAGE_NAME>" width="<IMAGE_WIDTH>" height="<IMAGE_HEIGHT>" id="photo" /> TITLE="header=[<IMAGE_TITLE>] body=[Click for previous photo]"</a>

Then see what happens..

[this way it will use the boxover script over the image alone, not the entire div.]

Hey, thanks man! This solves the problem of the tooltip appearing to the left and right of the picture.
The problem of the tooltip not showing up from time to time still remains though... :-(

For me it is showing always but you must take out mouse from image and get it back to see it.
