Re: [xwiki-users] users Digest, Vol 20, Issue 1
Hello Niels, Thank you so much for taking out the time to find this info for me. I do take your advice to heart about the pitfalls of using tooltip on XWiki. I also visited the website where the tooltips are actually implemented. Unfortunately, the performance was not satisfactory. I might have to come up with something else to circumnavigate my problem at hand. Once again, thank you so much for your timely response.

Take a look at: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/DevGuide/API/xwiki-core-1.8-rc-...

Warning -- there is a potentially significant performance penalty for adding tooltips. For one, even if you don't need to display any tooltip text (or it's from a long document and might never be displayed as it's scrolled off screen), it's all loaded into the browser.

Hello friends, I am here to request help on embedding a balloon styled tooltip in our XWiki instance. I have had a fair amount of success in embedding various third party javascript libraries, however, the ones that depend on jquery do not seem to work through XWiki. I did go through an article which guides us through creating tooltips and custom validations in forms. Our requirement, however, is to have a balloon styled tooltip that can hold images, text (generally info) about the link that the user is about to visit if s/he were to click on it. Our users are having a hard time navigating the pages since they move from page to page assuming that the next page that they are about to visit is the one where they will find their answers. It is also not possible to load the current page with too much info about the links that they are about to visit (as this will lead to cluttered pages). Could someone be kind enough to guide me through embedding a tooltip that "pops-up" when the user hovers the mouse over a link. Or maybe there is plugin for it already which i might have missed. Thank you for your time and interest friends. _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
