Advanced TOOLTIP with dynamic content

Post by TI&OSM »

Hello everybody,

I made a (sort of) menu with the 'article list image'.
see http://www.typography.nl/_phpwcms_133/i ... ?projecten.
When you click on the image the article itself shows up (in the same block).

But… I want to show it up in a sort of advanced TOOLTIP
like http://kontera.com/ContentLinkFormats/Content.htm (click on the example links)
So That the menu with the article list images remains visible.

Is there anyone who can help me on this one?

Many thanks in advance,

Robert

It redirects, so you have to click on 'projecten' in the right menu.

Thanks

hard to describe in simple words.

You want to put tooltips for the image? Right?

There are multiple ways to do so - but needs JavaScript and some custom dev.

Well, I want all featured content parts of that specific article to be shown in the tooltip.
In this case it would be a little bit of plain text, one or two images and a file-list to download a pdf file.

I myself am not capable to make such a thing, so I hoped someone on the forum could help me out,
but I understand it ain't a peace of cake.

So, Oliver, when I ask a programmer, is he capable to do some custom development
and fit this into your code or must he know where and what to change or do?

there is no real custom dev necessary - it's just a question of template and some javascript code. But first - the question is: How should it look like.

Well, when you click on the image
http://www.typography.nl/_phpwcms_133/i ... ?projecten
(the top right image has some content)
a tooltip should display and the images(menu) should stay visible!!!

White background, a black outline and a dropshadow which
the normal tooltip also have. (CSS customable? if possible?)
Fixed width and the height dependable of the content.

When you click outside it or on close button, it disappears.
This is how it should look like and when it's not to much to ask
can you help me?

I searched the web for scripts that do what I want them to do
and I found several javascripts that fit perfectly into the templates I use.
Only you have to 'id' them manually...!
And I want a new 'id' when a new article is generated.
That's what you mean I guess...!
I only don't know how to make this 'id' generation dynamically.

PS.: maybe you don't call it 'id' in javascript, but has it an other name.
