Here’s a tip… If you have two “block” format passages one after the other, there is no space between them, only a line. If you want to account for this, add the following to your CSS file:

blockquote.esvblock + blockquote.esvblock {
margin-top: 10px;
}

Tried it and it works on both Firefox and IE. Check it out here:

Thank you for tippy! I am having fun playing with it and getting it how I want (I’ve got a close.gif that is the text of the word “close” and sits in the bottom center) – know very little of CSS so have been messing with that.

One thing that it’d be nice to do is have different text for the link and in the title bar of the tooltip. I’d like the link to say “Read more…” and the tooltip to start with the title of whatever the content is.

I suppose I could fake that by changing the CSS to not show the passed “Read more…” (or to make it a small font in the bg color) and then in the HTML body put the title content I want. Or is there an easier way?

Thanks again!

In the plugins/tippy directory there is a file called dom_tooltip.css this contains all the css definitions for the tooltip. To change the font just go in the div.domTip_TipHeader and div.domTip_TipBody sections and modify font settings as you need.

Hope this helps!

I’m having a little trouble figuring out how to change the tooltip fonts. If you look at three sites I manage, each looks a different.
