Hi, Karl. thanks for the reply.
I figured out the problem. nothing's broken. I just had the width of the tip still set to the default 275. Once I reset the tip width to 600 to match my image, the entire image began to show up as expected. The only thing I wish now is that the tip would show on the bottom of the link (or top) if the tip is too wide for the display area. Then I could make best use of the screen space. As it is now, say with a display area of 800px, I can only show an image 400px wide, if the link is in the middle of the page. Is it possible now to have the tip show up above or below the link? Thanks for the help!

Hi Rick, Here is how the clueTip positioning is supposed to work: * switches from the right side of the link to the left side, if there is not enough room between the link and the right edge of the browser window * moves up until the whole clueTip is visible, if the link is too close to the bottom edge of the browser window. * moves back down until the clueTip's top is at the top edge of the browser window, if the clueTip is taller than the window (viewable area) * sits to the right or left of the mouse position, if the link is a block-level element or if the link is so wide that the clueTip can't completely fit to the left or the right of it. Something must be broken, though, as indicated by your example. I will look into this and offer a patch as soon as I can. Don't hesitate to contact me off-list if you don't hear from me about this within a few days (I'm having a hard time managing all my projects and support requests at the moment). Thanks a lot for brining this to my attention. I'm really grateful for any feedback like this that can help me make the plugin better. --Karl _________________ Karl Swedberg www.englishrules.com www.learningjquery.com On Jul 28, 2007, at 10:07 PM, Rick Faircloth wrote: What controls the direction a ClueTip shows from the link? I put a div on a page with an image inside that has a link. The ClueTip content is a larger image. Its working fine, except for the fact that the ClueTip always displays to the right of the link. Shouldn't the orientation be automatic? And. if the ClueTip is so large that it will display outside the window if the link is in the middle of the page, is it possible to have it show above or below the link?
