/**
* DOM Tooltip 0.6.0
*
* Summary:
* Allows developers to add custom tooltips to the webpages. Tooltips are
* controlled through three style class definitions. This library also detects
* collisions against native widgets in the browser that cannot handle the
* zIndex property. But this library is even more than that...with all the
* features it has, it has the potential to replace the need for popups
* entirely as it can embed just about any html inside the tooltip, leading to
* the possibility of having whole forms or iframes right inside the tip...even
* other programs!!!
*
* Maintainer: Dan Allen <dan@mojavelinux.com>
*
* License: LGPL
* However, if you use this library, you become an official bug reporter :)
* Please post to my forum where you use it so that I get a chance to see my
* baby in action. If you are doing this for commercial work perhaps you could
* send me a few Starbucks Coffee gift dollars to encourage future developement
* (NOT REQUIRED). E-mail me for my address.
*
* Homepage: http://www.mojavelinux.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=127
*
* Freshmeat Project: http://freshmeat.net/projects/domtt/?topic_id=92
*
* Updated: 2003/02/14
*
* Supported Browsers: Mozilla (Gecko), IE 5.0+, Konqueror, Opera 7
*
* Usage:
* All this is required is to put the function call in the event tag for an
* html element. The status option (for changing the status bar text) is only
* available through all events, but when used with 'onmouseover' you have to
* return true so that the browser does not display the link text in the status
* bar. To do this, wrap the domTT_activate call in the function makeTrue(),
* which will just return true, and then prefix it with a 'return'
*
* Example: <a href="index.html" onmouseover="return makeTrue(domTT_activate(this, event, 'caption', 'Help', 'content', 'This is a link with a tooltip', 'statusText', 'Link', 'trial', true));">click me</a>
*
* Options:
* Each option is followed by the value for that option. The variable event
* must be the first parameter, as shown above. The options avaiable are:
*
* predefined (optional, must be first item if used, loads default values)
* caption (optional)
* content (required)
* closeLink (optional, defaults to domTT_closeLink global setting variable)
* statusText (optional, if used with mouseover must wrap call in 'return domTT_true()')
* type (optional, defaults to 'greasy' but can be 'sticky' or 'velcro')
* classPrefix (optional, defaults to 'domTT', for changing style class)
* delay (optional, defaults to global delay value domTT_activateDelay)
* parent (optional, defaults to document.body)
* closeAction (optional, defaults to global domTT_closeAction, either 'hide' or 'remove')
* trail (optional, follow the mouse cursor while tooltip is active)
