Released under The MIT License.

## Description:

tipsy is a simple jQuery plugin for generating Facebook-style tooltips.

It's used by Twitter, Github, Slideshare and Bitbucket, amongst others.

## Homepage:

http://onehackoranother.com/projects/jquery/tipsy

## Source:

Hosted at GitHub; browse at:

http://github.com/jaz303/tipsy/tree/master

Or clone from:

git://github.com/jaz303/tipsy.git

## Usage:

1. Copy the contents of src/{images,javascripts,stylesheets} to the corresponding asset directories in your project.
If the relative path of your images directory from your stylesheets directory is not "../images", you'll need to adjust tipsy.css appropriately.

2. Insert the neccesary elements in your document's `` section, e.g.:


Remember to include jquery.tipsy.js *after* including the main jQuery library.

3. Initialise Tipsy in your document.onload, e.g.:


$(function() {
$('a[rel=tipsy]').tipsy({fade: true, gravity: 'n'});
});
