Extension:Tooltip

This extension provides the ability to add fancy tooltips to wiki text. Unlike other extensions which provide similar functionality (i.e. Extension:Glossary, Extension:LinkedImage, Extension:LinkFloatie, etc), this extension allows for multi-line wiki and/or HTML syntax text for the tooltip. Additionally, the tooltip itself is displayed in a fancy semitransparent window.

Step 1
Download the extension code from SVN and place it in the extensions directory.

Step 2
Add the following text to your LocalSettings.php

Step 3
Save a 16x16 pixel png with some level of alpha channel transparency as ttbg.png in $wgScriptPath/images directory. As an example, here is a blue background image.

Usage Instructions
tooltip text where the x= and y= parameters are optional. Alternatively, use where the x= and y= parameters are optional.
