This is my first attempt at trying to use a tooltip and I must not be doing something right, because I haven't gotten it to work yet. I'm currently using JQuery 1.8.3 along with JQuery UI 1.9.2.custom.js. My code for trying to display it looks like this(JQuery.noConfllict is currently turned on so jq represents my reference to JQuery):

 

    jq( aslctr ).tooltip("option",{ content: reqName, show: { duration: 1000 }, position: { my: "left+100 center+10" } } );  
    
    jq( aslctr ).tooltip( "open");

 

Based on the documentation I think I have most of the code above correct, but the tooltip doesn't open as I would have expected it to. I'm trying to set up some of the tooltip options with the first line above and thought that the second line above should actually open the tooltip and display it, but so far that hasn't happened. Where are my mistakes?

 

Thanks for the help.
