Tool Tip

Post by shivam0101 »

Hello,

I have downloaded a very nice tool tip from, http://www.walterzorn.com/tooltip/tooltip_e.htm.

the mouseover page, is inside an iframe. I want the tool tip to appear outside the iframe, so there won't be any scrollers. I tried to change all z-index to 4 in the files without success. Can any one tell me how to make it appear outside iframe?


Thanks

I would guess that this is not possible because outside of the iframe your no longer in the original pages viewing area.

so, how to i solve this problem? The contents are in an i frame, onmouse over their details should appear in a tool tip. If i use the download script, scrollers appear when the details is more.

why dont [s]u[/s] you just disable scrollbars? :?
Otherwise it'd be a pain in the *** to get outside the iframe and i dont have a clue yet how to do that :)
