I figured out a workaround by using a hidden div, and loading the external website content in the hidden div. However, now that it's working, I've noticed that the cluetip seems to shift its location after I load the content into the div. Maybe it's the way I'm doing it? I'd like to be able to load the content before the cluetip is show, and make sure it is loaded.
Here's what I'm doing right now: <a href="whatever.com" rel="#helper" class="hTip">test</a> <div id="helper" style="display: none"></div> jQuery("a.hTip") .livequery(function() { var url = jQuery(this).attr("href"); jQuery(this).cluetip({ cluetipClass: 'jtip', arrows: true, dropShadow: false, hoverIntent: false, sticky: true, mouseOutClose: false, closePosition: 'title', closeText: 'close', activation: 'click', local: true, onShow: function(ct, c) { jQuery(c).load(url, function() { alert('finished loading'); }); return true; } }); return false; }); Instead of onShow, I also tried onActivate, but the external site doesn't finish loading until after the cluetip shows, which causes the external content to not even show up.
