CSS tooltip

CSS tooltip

Hello,

I'm using the following code to display CSS tooltips over a couple of
images. The code is based on the example posted at http://lixlpixel.org/css_tooltip/
and on a few similar sites.

The code works fine on Firefox, but on IE, the tooltip displayed when
you hover over 'image1' is beneath 'image2'. Any suggests on how I can
make both tooltips hover above the images would be greatly
appreciated.

Thank you,
Stuart

No URL of your own?

The simplicity, brevity, reliability, and validity of this code (below)
is not worth the loss of background colors and (in some browsers)
rounded corners on your tooltips?

Tooltips: to style or not to style







Was the Eric Meyer link on the page for which you did provide a URL not
helpful to you?
