Hi, I have clueTip working really nicely (for the most part) but just
have two issues, well, one issue and one question.

First of all thanks for all the work on this plugin its great.

First question is about the width. Is there any way to have it resize
based on the content? I'm just using it for simple tooltips displaying
2 lines of text (a title and a date), should I perhaps be using a
different solution or do they all suffer from not being able to
dynamically change width based on content?

Second thing is a little bug (or I may have broken it ofc). I've
tested my deployment of this plugin in safari (3) and FF(3), both on
windows and I can now get this bug when ever I want it. It seems that
if I pass my cursor over the links (anchors wrapped around images in
this case) that trigger the effect then the contents of the tooltip
(without any bg images or designated style) appear and stick to a
point near where my cursor left the trigger area. I think its
something to do with the fadeIn effect I'm using. It seems if I enter
and then leave the trigger area quicker than it takes for the tooltip
to appear then it sticks. It then only disappears when you trigger the
plugin again by mousing over a trigger link. I wouldn't be bothered
about this but am worried about users skimming over the links and
setting off this bug.

Its very much possible that I have caused this bug myself. I'm using a
few custom options (as stated in the documentation) and I have
customised the tooltip itself (after a fashion).

Below is my JS config just in case I've done something wrong, don't
want to waste anyones time here. I think this is all correct though I
am a complete novice when it comes to JS and jQuery. If my CSS could
be causing a problem and I need to post that then let me know.


$(document).ready(function() {

          $('.img_prev').cluetip({
                  splitTitle: '|',
                  showTitle: true,
                  width: '150',
                  cluetipClass: 'rounded',
                  height: 'auto',
                  positionBy: 'mouse',
                  tracking: true,
                  dropShadow: false,
                  fx: {
                          open:       'fadeIn',
                          openSpeed:  'medium'
                  },
                  });

          });


I did notice that the mouse tracking is listed as experimental so
apologies if this is a known bug, I couldn't find a bug list anywhere
to check.

Thanks in advance and thanks for the work done on this plugin.

Pete. :)
