Hello,
I'm trying to create an extension which has a tooltip to show information. To show the tooltip, I need an "onMouseOver" to call the javaScript-Function. But when I try my hook to return a string like
"<a onMouseOver='...'>Hello World!</a>" this string is escaped like "<a onMouseOver ... </a>". What can I do??? If I try to use a <span>-Tag, the "onMouseOver"-Attribute is not shown (Why this???)
Please tell me how to handle this.
Best regards, Kai Huener

This might sound silly, but why not use the title="" attribute for the anchor tag?
Good Morning All,
Kai -- you may want to check out the following page... http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Editing#Templates
I have been researching how to change the Wiki and I stumbled on the H: template that appears to exist already and does exactly what you describe. Techincally it appears to use a span title attribute to accomplish the task, but it would be a good starting point for a similar feature using Javascript.
