Tooltips in panels

Question

Seems like tooltips that you get from attribute title="test" are not displayed inside the panel.

Tested also with stackoverflow loaded in the panel, no tooltips when you hover mouse over hot, week, month. But the custom tooltips work, e.g. when you hover over tags.

Is there a way to enable tooltips in Add-on SDK panels, or the only way is going custom tooltips?

Answer 1

No, displaying tooltips for HTML elements requires special code in the browser. This code is there for the built-in browser but not for the browser that the SDK embeds in a panel. That's something that might be worth filing as an SDK bug but in the meantime - custom tooltips are the way to go.
