Formbuilder form - is it possible to add tooltips or pop up help notes?

Hi all

I have been asked to add tooltips to a formbuilder form to expand on the checkbox labels e.g. one for an "education" label to expand on the type of info that will be sent to the enquirer via an sms service etc etc

Have searched the forum (knowing me I have probably missed something) but haven't so far found any reference to this.

I envisage the checkbox label being clickable and opening a popup containing the additional info (if it looked like a speech bubble that would be cool but right now ready to settle for anything)

I have seen ajax type show/hide sections on various sites but think that might be a step too far for me at my present stage of knowledge! - perhaps something css based would be easier??? ???

Am just in the process of getting the form to look the way I want it and if I could acheive this it would be great.

Has anyone done anything like this ? - or tell me now if it is impossible!

Thanks in advance

Lynne

You may have to hard code the form...

Would this involve creating/editing an xml file? I have thought of a workaround with icons in a left hand column adjacent to the form - think that will do for now - but it would be good to be able to do more with forms

Many thanks
