[pmwiki-users] Tooltips

[Martin Cuno]

Sorry! I was too tired when I asked my question. It didn't even occur to me that I could create the tooltip with a {$:PTV}.

It's useful, however, to note that you obviously need an "absolute" PTV:

Make a link to [[Sandbox.Testseite0002"{$:Title}"|here]]. DOES NOT WORK

Make a link to [[Sandbox.Testseite0002"{Sandbox.Testseite0002$:Title}"|here]]. WORKS! Even in more complicated structures like PageLists.

Thanks! Martin

MediaWiki (Wikipedia) automatically has the title of the remote page as
a tooltip balloon, no need to add markup, even if the text of the link
is the same.

We could add a configuration variable to enable this, if the link has no
defined "tooltip title in quotes".

Or possibly have a default tooltip title configurable with page
variables, say:

$LinkPageDefaultTooltip = '{$Groupspaced} / {$Title} [{$:Status}]';

This could even include page properties like {$Description} or
{$LastModifiedBy}, but the tooltip can only be plain text, and special
characters <>'" need to be escaped once. If this includes a page text
variable like {$:Summary} that contains a link, its markup would appear
intact in the tooltip.
