This question seems template related so I posted over at joomlart first but they were of 0 help, said it's not a technical issue, and to buy developer time. I'm not doing that. I'm hoping someone here knows a quick fix.

I'm using Chronoforms 4.0 RC3.4.1 on a site I'm moving over from 1.5 to 2.5 and want to use the JA Purity II template. However, the "tooltips" are not being displayed on the front-end. The question mark is displayed but when moused-over the pop-up does not show.

I tried:
Using different browsers and none of them display the tooltips with the JA Purity II template.
I can switch the default to Beez5 or Beez_20 and they display normally.

The site is on a private LAN but I can put it on the internet easily if needed.

Thanks!

Hi nwoswamp,

If you can put a copy on-line and post a link, or PM me one, then I'll take a look.

PM message sent. Thanks.

HI nwoswamp,

Fixed . . . it needed a z-index setting to bring the tips in front of the template. I added a Load CSS action in the On Load event with this code

div.tooltipbox {
  z-index: 1000;
}

Wow, that was quick and painless. I see what you did and will make note of it.

Bought you a beer... Cheers!

Hi nwoswamp,

Thanks for the beer, much appreciated.

It took a little bit of digging to find as everything works OK - except that the tooltips are hidden behind the template layer. I've seen that before with some more complex templates but not with one like this.

Bob,

Yes, that was excellent. I added a few other things to make the box standout more as well, removed transparency and made it a different color.

I'm starting to get an idea of what you mean with that template. I was tweaking some code to put some images and files in different locations and saw code that is not scalable at all, very specific to the sample data and images that came with the template. I choose that template because I went with JA_Purity on the 1.5 site. I also saw a few posts on the Joomla forums that regarded JA_Purity_II as one of the more compatible templates in 2.5. I really didn't like the stock choices and the fonts they were using.

I'll deal with that template for now.

I have the same problem but with Beez_20 template.

I have added the suggested load css with no success.

I am having a similar problem and tried the above fix and several others. However, the tooltips do not show up. They simply show a yellow box with the first few characters of the form box label. I am using Chronoforms v4.0.1.J3. Here is a link to my form: http://cairo.directrouter.com/~kreativs/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=86&Itemid=134. Any ideas? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

I never did get the tooltips to work. As a workaround, I recreated the form as a custom code box in the wizard and added a "title" to each input box. When the user clicks on the input box, the tip pops up. I would much rather have the question mark with the tip, but this works for me for now.
