http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Tooltip ## code in the documentation does not work
Hi there,
I come from a different Javascript framework and I just wanted to try out jquery. Unfortunately I find it very hard. Since I want to leave the emotions out I directly jump to the problem I have (I assume you want to hear it).
I want to use a tooltip so I find the documentation (UI/API/1.9/Tooltip). This release is not even available but it try it anyway since at least the first sample works (it uses 1.8).
I scroll down the documentation and I find the following:
Code examples
-
Initialize a tooltip with the
content
option specified.
-
$( ".selector" ).tooltip({ content: function(response) {
$.getJSON("tooltipcontent.html", response);
} });
==> this does not work. I think there is something important missing.
I have the impression that other people failed with this one as well so you might consider to fix that.
I produced a variation that kind of works but unfortunately does not exactly what I want
$(document).ready(function() {
$("[title]").tooltip({ content: function(response) {
$.getJSON("http://localhost:9999/time", response);
return 'flawed!';
} });
});
