I have a div, that I'm using JavaScript to position, so that when someone hovers over an image, it displays a tooltip message that follows along with the pointer. (Using tooltip-0.2.js )
The problem is that when a user goes to the page in IE6, a disabled dropdown box on the page is showing through this absolutely positioned tooltip when it tries to hover over it. How can I get this dropdownlist to know its proper place? ;)
You can put an iframe element behind your layer to block such things from showing through. It will also block Flash objects from showing through. It's messy, but works.
You better use another tooltip lib.
The "shining-through" effect is well known and other tooltips work around it.
I can't name a specific other tooltip lib.

I have kind of a weird problem in my website, but which seems to be a problem of the UI library I'm using.
Every time I click a select element in my page the background is slightly changing, in width, which flickers the background image.
At first I though this is a problem in my code, but after checking, I see that in the UI library docs it also happens.
Example:
My site : https://dinsangun.github.io/crypto-converter/
The lib docs: https://mui.com/components/selects/
(In the lib docs, when you click a select element, pay attention to the slider on the right side, it disappears when the dropdown menu of the select items is clicked)
Is there a way to overcome this little bug?
Thanks.
Your problem comes from the scrollbar, when you click on the select it dissapears and so the background extends to cover all the screen.
It's the same problem for MUI website.
One of the solution I can propose would be to put on your body or root div height:100vh;overflow:hidden;
I'm trying to resolve a problem that I encountered with the creation of a tooltip interface in a website I'm developing. I constructed the tooltips with help of HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The script is pretty simple as you can see in the fiddle underneath, and is based on a toggle behaviour, on witch a trigger element open a pop-up tooltip.
jsFiddle
Now! My problem is that i can't figure out how to place the trigger on the top of everything so they are not hidden by the pop-ups! Let me explain. Since the pop-up, even when they are off, sometimes cover the trigger elemets they (the triggers) just result not clickable. is like they are hidden behind invisible pop-ups. Here is a link of how is right now online.

I hope you can see the problem! Does anyone know how to resolve this?
You've changed the .pop-ups to "block" as soon as it initializes. $("div.pop-up").css({'display':'block','opacity':'0'})
If you want to show/hide, I would recommend using .fadeIn/.fadeOut: http://api.jquery.com/fadein/
In some apps, when a user focues on a certain element, a tooltip will float at the bottom of the page which displays information about that element. For example:
Does anyone know of a good way to achieve this effect (preferably using Angular, although jQuery is also fine)?
Note that I'm NOT looking for the tooltip that hovers nearby the actual element itself, like so:
Instead, I'm interested in the tooltip that floats at the bottom of the page.
The control you are NOT looking to use is called a popover. A popover and a tooltip are both tied to an element on the DOM that has to be interacted with to be shown.
If you want to something in between that shows up in a fixed position on the window, use something like the angular port of Toastr and configure it to show up when and where you want.
Maybe you are looking for a plugin like the famous ToastrJS which can position a toast in the middle of the screen.
So I wanted to do for my company's webpage, a thing where are links that belong to people, to make it when you click, you have a little menu where you can choose to send him a message or view his profile..

After click:
I tryed to search for it, couldn't find anything of much valuable.. Maybe someone can help me out.
If you're looking for an easy way to do it, I recommend using jQuery (http://jquery.com/) with one of the popup plugins (http://plugins.jquery.com/tag/popup/). It's easy to install, and most of them have a working demo for you to test out before download.
Otherwise, coding a popup window with pure JS takes time.
This general method is to:
Create a hidden div
Position: absolute and play with the z-index so your div will be on top of all other elements.
Set the position to where you clicked, or somewhere around the area of the target.
Take into account the width and height of the window/screen. (i.e. No poing in showing a div that'll appear off screen).
Fill it in with information you need.
Make it appear.
The way I've done things like that in the past is to have a hidden absolute or fixed DIV layer that houses that message menu. Then have a click trigger make that div layer visible and positioned at the current mouse coordinates.
There should be a lot of articles on google telling you how to do the various stages of all those steps.
Want to know How to create modal dialog/pop up without title bar using javascript which will work on both IE and FF.
Thanks.
You're going to have to make a div that sits--absolutely positioned--in the middle of the viewport (or wherever you want it) above all the other elements--using z-index. This is where your content goes. Now, I recommend a film to go behind it, but above everything else--again using z-index. Then place a handler on that film that places focus back on the "modal" div. Also, you might want to place a focus handler all the other elements (not the "modal" div), using event delegation, that places focus back on your "modal" div--just to be sure.
You also might want to look at how jQuery UI does it. You'd only need to remove the title bar from. In fact, you probably could just use that one and mess with the CSS to hide the title bar.
I do this with two divs. I lay one div over the whole screen and make it semi-transparent, then I lay my "popup" div in the center of the screen with a higher z-index. The popup div can then contain whatever content you want.
