Define tooltip text

Tooltip text is something you add manually to your <INPUT> or <TEXTAREA> tags by creating a tooltipText attribute. Example:

<input type="text" id="firstname" name="firstname" tooltipText="Type in your firstname in this box">

Initialize and configure the script

At the bottom of your page, add code similar to this:

<script type="text/javascript">
var tooltipObj = new DHTMLgoodies_formTooltip();
tooltipObj.setTooltipPosition('right');
tooltipObj.setPageBgColor('#EEE');
tooltipObj.setCloseMessage('Exit');
tooltipObj.initFormFieldTooltip();
</script>

Which methods you want to call depends on what you need. Look at the complete documentation for more help.
