    Was looking for a way for informational text to show up once the mouse hovers over a few words anywhere within the website. I see that there are some plugins that handle this…….

    http://ww.wp.xz.cn/extend/plugins/hover/

    ………but are not quite what I seek. Im looking for a method for words with a specific markup to be what gets the text showing up upnn it being hovered over.

    For example, lets say I have the words “Option 1” between two list tags (<li>) I would want it to read “Here is text” upon someone mousing over </li>
    <li>Option 1</li>
    Note that I specifically want it to work for all instances of “Option 1” that appear enclosed within <li> tags.

    Is this request tooo far fetched?

    Bumping this topic. Maybe there is a different way to do this entirely. I just want people to be able ot select options from a checkbox, but have a way to see what those options are *in detail* from that page where they are listed. Tooltips seem to work well for glossary entries so I figured maybe the same could be done.

    Seems that most of the tooltip plugins are not setup in lieu of WordPress Custom Content Types.

    Ill have to look into this but I wonder if these kinds of popups can deal with parsed code: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrfXUyYyrLs&feature=youtu.be

    Here is the code for that I want to parse
    <?php print_custom_field('product_options', array('<li>[+value+]</li>','<ul>[+content+]</ul>') ); ?><br />

    I think the issue is that it is using an array command to display all the items that the administrator checks (within the admin/backend) for any given product. That will change depending on what options are available for the item.
