Ah sorry, my fault for not reading through the thread properly. Sorry.

Hi Joe

The problem identified by Marcel is that once we have built our alternative tooltip with the scripts from http://labs.unitinteractive.com then it is applied to all alt text and titles regardless of the browser. I do have the fix ie-alt tags but that I thought only stops them popping up in IE? Certainly in has no effect on my test pages - the speech bubble pops up with vigour in Safari and Firefox. Yes we can switch them off in the inspector palette but this I guess is not sound practise.

You could try using the “class trigger” method. In the configuration
area of the script, set a classname that you want to get the tips,
then add that class to the items you want to get the effect.

Hi Waltd,
how do you ‘add that class to the items you want to get the effect’ (I’ve set the ‘classname’ within the ‘unitip.js’ to ‘tool’ - I think)

thanks in advance.

Select the link text or the image the link is attached to. Open the
hyperlink dialog, and in the Extended sub-dialog, add the following
name/value pair:

  • Name: class
  • Value: tool

Okay out of the stack of dialogs, and repeat for each link you wish to
have the tooltip experience.
