Hi everyone,

I want to add this cool DHTML script to some of my XOOPS forms, so that each form field has a little info bubble pop up beside it when you are filling it in.

The script can be found here

and the demo can be found here



I understand how to integrate this tooltip onto a form that has been made in the regular fashion... but I am stumped as to where to put the referencing code for forms that have the text fields created dynamically...where do I insert the code so that the appropriate tool tip is displayed by the appropriate text field?

Here is an example of what you are supposed to put around the text field on a regular form:



Anyone had any luck with this?

Thanks,

Jeff

Bump!

Anyone have any idea how XOOPS forms work? This is really boggling my mind... :)

Jeff,

This raises an issue that is a bit of a pet peeve of mine. There is no centralized form handler per say. The basic functions are present, but module devs don't typically capitalize on them.

Essentially, for core/module forms that have templates, you can just modify the template. The problem is with modules that don't use templates to generate the forms. Those modules will have to be "hacked" to include your functionality. What files will need to be hacked will depend on what modules you are using. There is no standard model here.

In a nutshell, you're going to be getting to know your modules on the code level to apply this hack.

Wish I had better news for you.

i just dont find some good examples for these modules.(maybe the old contact us?)

new modules have templates for each and every form.
