It's easy to test (I just did so in IE7). More difficult than when able to use FireBug, but we get by. ;-)
Browse to http://plugins.learningjquery.com/cluetip/demo/ and click on the "Examples" tab. (Sorry don't know how to link directly to Examples--or if it is even possible.) Once you're looking at that page, paste the following into the address bar: javascript:alert($('a.basic:first').after('<select id="selma" name="selma"><option>blue<option>black</select>')); That needs to be on one line--and it will likely get broken up in transit. The alert() is simply to prevent IE from displaying [Object object] (the return value for $.after()) all by itself in the document area after adding the select element. That script line will add a "select" dropdown right after the "simplest example there is" link, and then hovering over that link will put the ClueTip window right above the newly-added dropdown. Presto! Insta-test. ^_^ HTH, Pyro On Oct 10, 11:57 am, Joel Noble <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Question I didn't see answered on the clueTip site: do clueTips > have a problem when appearing on top of form elements (particularly > select drop-downs) in IE 6? > > The Interface tooltips I'm using seem to appear "behind" certain > form elements in IE, and the workaround suggested on this list for > the general problem I haven't been able to make work with the > tooltips (probably because they don't exist yet at page load time, > but maybe it's more subtle than that.) > > I'd happily switch tooltip methods if there was a well-regarded > library that didn't have this problem! > > Thanks! > > On Wed, Oct 10, 2007 at 11:07:28AM -0400, Karl Swedberg wrote: > > Hey Rick, > > > Thanks a lot!
