Brief Description:
Plugin to add bubble tooltips to your site

Nice one Laurent
Knew Nice Titles, but didn’t know Bubble Tooltips, I’ll give a shot to TooltipX for sure !

It’s a nice feature.
I saw it first on http://web-graphics.com and test - it works. But I’m unable to run this plugin. How I have to use it?
I do all the steps you advice (copy the folder, built a plugin, copy the text into this, activate the system event "OnLoadWebDocument"). But I don’t know how I have to include this. When I will show tooltips for an explanation Word - must I write this in the page/site [[tooltipX? &onlyTips=Only tips;int;1]]???
Can you help me to fix the problem? Thanks, astock

Hi astock,
It’s a plugin so you don’t have to "include it"

I fogot to mention that before saving your plugin you have to go to "Configuration" and put (in your case) in the "Plugin configuration" field. See the picture


Than, in the content field of your documents put something like this {=NATO:North Atlantic Treaty Organisation:=} to create a tooltips

=> {=Text on the page:Tooltip text to be display:Link(optional)=}

Hope that helps

Hi Laurent,

first of all thanks for your fast reply.
I have done all this steps but the text in the brackets {} was not rendered. The example {=NATO:North Atlantic Treaty Organisation:=} is to read exactly so in the document.

Sorry but I did not understand what you wrote

Sorry for my bad english!
I mean that the example {=NATO:North Atlantic Treaty Organisation:=} is to read exactly so in my document. Normaly there is to read only the word NATO. Then you move your cursor on the word and you can read the tooltip.

At the moment: Bla bla bla {=NATO:North Atlantic Treaty Organisation:=} bla bla.
I need: Bla bla bla NATO bla bla bla

Have you any idea?

I have solved my problem with a snippet on the basic of "Bubble Tooltips" by Alessandro Fulciniti (http://pro.html.it - http://web-graphics.com). Maybe ist is not so elegant like a plugin but it works. If anybody is interested for the snippet, please contact me.

What do this snippet? It includes the javascript call for "BubbleTooltips", search in the content for an acronym TAG and shows the title in a speech ballon / tooltip.

Regards
astock

Hi astock,
Are you sure the plugin is not deactivated ?

If it not, I really dont understand why the plugin don’t work with your MODx install... what version of MODx do you use ?

Hi laurentc,

yes, the plugin was activated. I work with MODx-Version 0.9.5, rev 2106.
But it’s ok, I do it with the modified snippet.
