    I looked at your png and the baloontext string is not complete. make sure that you past the compleet line:
    words=Words;string;word1|word2|word3 &balloontext=BalloonText;string;word1:this replaces the first word:http://www.1-vision.nl|word2:so this is the text for word2:|Pascal:the scriptmaster:http://www.spinsiteservice.nl



    now you will see 2 input fields.
    with this in the Ballontext field:
    word1:this replaces the first word:http://www.1-vision.nl|word2:so this is the text for word2:|Pascal:the scriptmaster:http://www.spinsiteservice.nl


    these are the 3 replacement parts for the first words, seperated by a pipe "|" :

    replacement for word1= word1: this replaces the first word:http://www.1-vision.nl
    replacement for word2= word2: so this is the text for word2:
    replacement for word2= word3: Pascal:the scriptmaster:http://www.spinsiteservice.nl

    notice the : at the end of "replacement for word2" this is because there is no link used. but for the tooltip to work it needs that":"


    I hope this helps

      Hi Dimmy,

      Please bear with my ignorance! I usually not that stupid and can figure thing out myself by looking at examples, reading instructions etc...
      I tried at least 50 times with your instruction, replacing the replacement parts with different combinations, still can’t get it working sad

      First I was confused why you would set the plugin configure in such manner (with the url links for word 2 and word 3 that look more like examples than actual configuration).

      Since you insist that is the correct complete line for plugin in config, and I think I understand now after I clicked the "update parameter display" and changed the replacement words in ballon text in the input field. The ’&balloontext=...’ line in the plugin config get changed, matches the one in the input field after saving. I reckon that is the correct setting ?! If yes, it’s still very confusing if I may comment.

      With the tooltipX, the cause was the php tags, I see that yours doesn’t include them so I presume nothing wrong in the plugin code, and I presume the ’//’ and ’/* */’ are correct way for commenting(?)

      Could I write you offlist, give you my login info so that you can login in to my manager to see what I did wrong?

      Thanks!

          Hi Dimmy, did you get my PM last night?


          By the way, in a web design list where I belonged to, someoen posted this today that looks similar to original tooltip from web-graphics site but appear to be more powerful:
          http://www.bosrup.com/web/overlib/

              New 1.1 release

              Add the regClientStartupScript to insert the js scripts in the header tag ( OnLoadWebDocument event used)

              I also modify the Dimmy plugin to work with the new release.

                  Hello,
                  I like your plugin, and am using the "{=NATO:North Atlantic Treaty Organisation:=}" for my test site, but dont like having a link show up under the description. I changed the "#" to "javascript:;" to prevent a click and jumping to the top of the page while reading, but I cant get rid of the null link from showing up below the phrase in the bubble.

                  Not to be asking for too much, but can the bubble be above the link instead of below?

                  Thank you for your help.

                    Hi and welcome islander,
                    Yes the null link is not very usefull here, but for the moment TooltipX is running around the Bubble Tooltips functions made by Alessandro Fulcitiniti (http://web-graphics.com), who is designed to work with links.

                    Perhaps that will change in a next version.
