Hi K,
Thanks for the feedback and for the clear description of the problem
you're having with the clueTip plugin. It was actually a "feature" to
disable the link's default behavior if the href and the tip attribute
(rel by default) were the same. Turns out the feature was based on a
bad assumption. ;-)
Anyway, someone else recently asked about the same thing, so I
modified the plugin to allow for clicking through, no matter what.
Unfortunately, my updates to the plugin have come in fits and starts,
basically whenever I find a free hour or two (which is pretty rare).
The update isn't currently available in a nice packaged download, and
I haven't thoroughly tested it, but if you want to give it a shot,
feel free to grab it from here:
http://jqueryjs.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/cluetip/jquery.cluetip.js
Then, you'll just need to add one key-value pair to the options:
$('a.basic').cluetip({
width:'830px',
positionBy: 'bottomTop',
waitImage: false,
clickThrough: true
});
});

I have cluetip working - love it. Easy to set up and use.
I have a calendar
you hover over a day and if fetches a remote page with events into the
cluetip. Perfect.
But... I also want the user to be able to click on the day and go to
the events page, but ti doesn't seem to work.
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$('a.basic').cluetip({
width:'830px',
positionBy: 'bottomTop',
waitImage: false
});
});
</script>
then in the table the clue tip is created dynamically like
<td width="16"><a class="basic" title="Days available" href="days.php?
year=<?year;?>&month=<?$month;?>" rel="days.php?year=<?year;?
>&month=<?
$month;?>"><?$month;?></a></td>
The "rel" brings the pop up just like I want, but the href does
nothing when clicked?
Thanks - new to jquery and this is the first plugin I'm playing with.
K
