Issue Summary
Hey,
Just wanted to say that I got calendar views working properly, and i love it.
But then I thought how could my calendar be even more sexy?
How about pop-up event titles?
What if the module could push the node title(s) for a day into the td title tag, so that when a user hovers over an event date (say in the month-block view or year view) the events would appear in the hover pop-up? That way you could quickly see what's going on without even having to click on anything.

+1 nice idea
I'm not sure if you can get linebreaks into link mouseover text (as the title attribute of a link) which would be needed if there are multiple event titles ... so I guess something with javascript ?
#2
I think being able to view info about the event when you mouse over the title would be quite nice, but it would definitely (or at least probably) require some javascript. I am completely useless when it comes to writing javascript, so this isn't something I'll be doing, but I'd certainly be open to a patch that would make this possible that I could review.

I am really interested in this; I suppose I will try to code it. If I manage would it be added to the official event module? (it would make updates easier).
thanks

This is the same as http://drupal.org/node/119542. I don't know which is first, but I replied there.

Ok, After some time attempting to get this to work, I came up with an alternative.
Using insert view, in a block, I inserted the calendar view and re-themed via some css to fit the block area.
I also modified the js calendar to re-postion and make the function operate on "mouseover" and "mouseout".
Works well. http://naiad.mulehill.com/
In my calendar view, I added the "view node" link which I display on the day.

Hey brightondesigns this looks great - I tried replacing my jcalendar.js with yours for a calendar month-view page and the popup does not show up on mouseover. Anything I might be missing?
#7
Actually, I figured it out, I had to remove one of the parent functions in line 9, to make it
var ids = $(this).parent().parent().attr('id');
Still struggling with positioning, it only appears for a split second.

Hi brightondesigns,
I am also stuck at the above said problem. I am using Drupal 6.3, views 2.2, calender, date and cck modules.
I want event title (have node type for new events) to pop up when user hovers over date in a calender black view (month view). something like WP events calender. I tried to click on the link you have given but unfortunately it is not working.
I am new to drupal and it will help me if you can list the steps to follow to achieve pop-up title for a date.
much thanks,

Hello guys, I am new to drupal, I have developed a site which uses the calendar module to show weekly events. Can the calendar tooltip module be used to show more information about an event when the mouse hovers over the title of event in the calendar.
