How to create interactive hints like this (example inside)

Question

Hi, i need to create interactive hints.I tried to create relative block and position hints inside it (absolute) using '%'. But i could not do it.

Are there any plugins for this or is it simpler to write it myself?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Search for tooltips. They can really come in handy in such a situation.

There are plenty of tooltip plugins on the net, one such is: http://qtip2.com/

Try to implement, play with and customize them.

The above link redirects to one such page where an image is there, and it lets you focus on specific image part to let the tooltip pop in.
