Documentation

If you wish to extend this facility to other parts of your forum you have to do is add some html attributes:

class = "my-tooltip"
add this attribute to an html code (for example, to link) to activate this feature
title = "content of the tooltip"
this attribute will be the textual content of the tooltip when you fly over the element with the class my-tooltip
