Mitch,
I came across the same issue with jTip until I studied it more.
The global.css provided jTip is only an example. All you really need
here are the classes beginning with "JT_" The CSS has an inline
comment separating the specific JT_ classes.
What I did was cut and paste these classes into a file called jTip.CSS
file and then I do this to customized them:
<style type='text/css' media='all'>
@import '/public/js/jtip/css/jtip.css';
#JT { background-color: lightcyan; }
.jTip { cursor:default;}
#JT_close_left { background-color: green; color: white; }
#JT_close_right { background-color: green; color: yellow;}
</style>"
ps: You may want to explore ClueTip. It has some improved ideas over
jTip, like proper placement so it isn't cut off, delaying the popup
until the hovering mouse is idle on the link, plus some other features
like Sticky Popups.
