Its great plugin thanks for good work. But documentation doesnt contain any information about inseting image into tooltip. Could you describe this functionality (on your demo page this example exist)?

you just have to insert the image with your editor between tags.
The plugin works great! Easy to setup, and easy to work with. If I had to say there were "problems", is that it's not set up to work in English (the base controls and instructions) and that the number of styles are limited. But this is a nitpick and shouldn't prevent you from using an otherwise outstanding tool.
Very good, basic tooltip extension. Easy to install and use.
As advertised, it allows for links and other html code (e.g. images) within the tooltip text - great feature!
The other thing I'd really like to see is if it could automatically adjust the box width, or if I could set the box width (using a css style?) for each occurrence to adjust for very short or very lengthy text, special locations, etc.
I have no idea how difficult that would be to implement and it's NOT a complaint! Just a suggestion if you're considering future editions.
THANKS for a great, FREE extension!

Installs easily and is very useful for basic tooltips. Major problem is that you cannot customize the tooltips at all. I would like a way to make the tooltip width wider so longer quotes don't take up so much vertical space. If you are only using short pieces of text and don't need the ability to customize text or colors, this is great.

hello,
You can customize your tooltip as you want by editing the css in the plugin directory. Enjoy !

This is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted a very simple Pop-Up to add to my articles. This plugin installs easily. Just enable the plugin and then embed the code directly into your article. Since it is written in French, I'll include the English instructions.
instructions for use:
Add the following line right into your article and replace the words with your own.
{tooltip}Keyword{end-texte}This is where your text in the pop-up goes.{end-tooltip}
