My recollection is that jTip2 gets the info via AJAX. I am currently using jTip2 for that purpose, in fact.

functionality to what NetFlix does when you hover over a movie.
If you look at the pic in the link:
<a href="http://www.intoajax.com/netflix.jpg">http://www.intoajax.com/netflix.jpg</a>
you'll see what I mean. jTip comes close but it doesn't seem to make an
Ajax call to grab the content. You have to have the actual files
available. I was looking for something that I could specificy a page and
have it pull back a description on the fly to fill in the box.
I'm sure I can hack jTip to do it but I wanted to see if there was
something in place before I went ahead.

Do you happen to have a link to that Yehuda? I'd really be interested in
using it. If you have code, that would be cool as well.

This is the original jTip. I think it does what you need:

Unfortunately no. Thats the same one that I had and it has no Ajax
functionality as far as I can tell. :o(

Um. It does have AJAX functionality. You set the href to the AJAXy URL, and it'll grab the contents on hover.

Hmm. I'm not seeing it the code (jtip.js) but that just may be that I'm
entirely too tired from a late night of coding. I'll try it out and see
how it looks.
Thanks for your help Yehuda,
Rey

Yep. Thats what it is. I told you I needed sleep. I tried out here:
http://www.intoajax.com/jtiptest.htm
Although it only works with local files which I'm assuming is part of
the cross-domain security.
