Display Tooltip

Recommended Posts

Hi,I have a flash menu on the left site of the screen which basically are icons only. The movie is very narrow (only 50 pixels wide), so there is not enough room to display text also in there. My problem is that I want a tooltip to appear when doing a mouseover over one of these icons.I tried using layers, but they seem to dissapear under the flashmovie itself, as well as other flash elements on the webpage.Since within the flash movie this can't be done, I am looking for a solution whereby a tooltip appears over the flashmovie.Help very appreciated.Kind regardskvarnerexpress

Hi, i believe this can be achieved by setting a transparency property on the flash object it self. I dont remember it now, as i have the code at job, let me get it tomorrow. If you use dreamweaver (which i think you use, as you are talking about some flash), you could look at the property bar (with the flash object selected) and seek for some kind of "flash transparency" atribute on it.I heard this kind of practice makes the browser render slower, but that could be a solution, it worked for me with a js menu that would go behind a flash (the submenu itself).Hope itworks for you.
