that someone here might be able to help with, namely:
- What accessibility issues need to be
considered, for using tooltips in form fields? (e.g. old browsers,
screen-readers, accesskeys)
- Do we have any mediawiki guidelines on what developers/extensions should use? (and should they be linked in the Living-Style-Guide e.g. here or is that outside of it's remit?)
- What is the best external documentation, and "best in class" examples?
- Where do we currently store some examples? e.g. the title="Enter a short summary [Alt+Shift+b]" in enwiki's edit-summary field.
- What pragmatic limits are there, on the
formatting & length of tooltip content? (can we do split lines in
basic HTML? How much harder is it to get clickable links in them? F108798: this is very pretty, but the rendered HTML is gigantic, and it's still not clickable/copyable text.)
- What other things should I/we be asking?
Answers over there, please and thank you. :)
