Karl, I evaluated ten (10) different tooltip plugins for jQuery and selected Cluetip based on features, functionality, and ease-of-use. So far, it has met my expectations wonderfully! Thank you for your efforts. For the past 2 days I have been struggling with the Cluetip API trying to programmatically close a displayed Cluetip and could not find a reliable way to do this.
You solved ALL my problems with this one simple method. Thanks again.
