The problem is the use of 'this' in the inner function. In that code it no longer means what you want it to mean. Try this (pun intended) instead:
$('a[href^=logmar]').queue(function(){ var $this = $(this); var args = $this.attr("href").split('?')[1]; if(args.charAt(0) == "l") { var lm = args.substring(2, args.length); $.get("templates/templates.php", {'action': 'lm2sn', 'l' : lm }, function(response){ if(response.length > 0) { $this.tooltip({ bodyHandler: function() { return response; }, showURL: false }); } }); } }); I don't know if there are any other remaining errors, but that will be one more down. -Mike > From: rhodopsin > > After getting a good nights sleep, and doing more research, > it seems the problem is not scope-related, but ajax-related. > The advice I have read suggests setting return values from > within the ajax callback function, because of the > asynchronous completion of the ajax function. > So, I have attempted to apply the tooltip functions within > the ajax callback, but without success.
