Hi

Real new to Chrono, am impressed, so far, also by what seems to be fantastic support, one LARGE issue I have:

The Tooltip does not work on the front end, if I hove over it, it does nothing - the pointer changes to a hand, but even a click brings nothing. Tried to create a new form, same problem. Using Ubuntu 8.04, Mozilla FF 3.03, Joomla 1.5.7.

Please help, otherwise I need to create a new form and take out all the info help.

Hi Malcolm,

What code are you using to create a ToolTip? Is your page on-line somewhere?

The default Joomla 1.5 ToolTip uses Mootools.js and needs to be set up before you can use it with a JHTML call

<?php
JHTML::_('behavior.tooltip');
?>
. . . 
<?php 
echo JHTML::_('tooltip', "This is the Form name, It must be Unique." );
. .  .
echo JHTML::_('tooltip', "Some other tooltip." );
?>

It is th standard info button when creating using the wizard.

It is here:

Hi Bob

Do you need backend access as well?

Malcolm

Hi malcolmp,

your URL above doesn't work for me, I need to look at your form page.

Hi Bob and Max

Thanks, Bob's original post got the tip to work, although it brings up the plain old yellow tooltip and not the funky black one that is on the backend. Could you give me that code, and I will edit the form to correct all the tooltips.

Thanks for the help, sorry about the site..

Malcolm

Hi Malcolm,

No IM received!

You can add an image url after the ToolTip text, I think though that it points to the /includes/js/ThemeOffice folder.

Bob

Last point..

I am really blown away by our support, well done and keep up the great work!!

Cheers

Malcolm Pearson

Hi Malcolm,

Thanks - happy to help :-)

Just for clarity, the image entry looks like this

echo JHTML::_('tooltip', "Some other tooltip.", "tootip.png" );

Bob

Hi again

Spoke too soon. In Mozilla (my system) it displays the tooltip like I think it should (attached), then if I do the same in IE, I get "Tooltip", what can I do to fix this?

It also does not send me email? Even though I have enabled email.

Let me know, and Bob, you have the private message with the site details if you want to look.

Appreciate the help....

Hi Malcolm,

That looks like a Joomal/MooTools problem - Google is your friend at this point . . .

Bob

PS In IE7 I see both versions of the tooltip at the same time.

Hi Malcolm,

Sorry but I was away, do you have the "load CF files" setting at the general tab set to "yes" ? there is no reason the tooltips don't work by default!

Max

Hi Malcolm,

after looking at your page again now, you have the jquery JS library loaded at the form page with mootools which may raise problems, the yootheme blocks the joomla mootools and loads its own which I'm not sure is a complete one so this may be another cause for troubles also.

Regards,
Max

Max,

How do I fix it?

Do I have to disable mootools in Yoo template? Not sure what will stop working then?

Is there another way to get tooltiips working?

Cheers
Malcolm

first try to find what loads jquery and disable it and test then look at the mootools thing if it didn't work, the tooltips should work fine out of the box but it needs mootools which is default at J1.5 site, and your site has 2 JS errors and different mootools file so I can't tell whats needed to fix unless we omit all these problems.

Cheers
Max
