freelance84 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 Does anyone know of any javascript which could OnMouseOver show the html title of a tag instantly? I know the workaround is to use jquery or something like this to display a div at the cursor position on the screen. However to get js to display the html title from the tag instantly seems a lot cleaner and more efficient... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly do you plan on displaying it within? Your question really makes little sense I'm afraid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freelance84 Posted April 28, 2011 Author Share Posted April 28, 2011 <input type="button" class="button yellow medium" title="This will do some cool stuff when clicked"/> The title of the above tag. When the user hovers over the button after a second or so a little title box appears saying, "This will do some cool stuff when clicked". The problem is the delay. I would like it to show the title instantaneously. One way of achieving something similar is to have a div containing the message hidden and onmouseover show the said div, but that is a lot of code for something so small...

nogray Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Search for javascript tooltip and you'll find planty of scripts out there (some are small). The only way to show it instantly is by using a div to display the title content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is the only way I know of to achieve the effect. Your data needs something to be displayed in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
