DHTML Tooltip

Today, I uploaded a small tooltip javascript on my wesite. I made it such that can display any HTML content including images. By using some tricks it is also possible to create translucent tooltips. Well thats not all , it can even animate itself while showing. The tooltip grows from a small point to its specified size, when shown on screen.

I plan to use it with AJAX and in my next writeup on AJAX tooltip for ASP.NET Datagrid. There are some issues with proper initialization of the tooltip in IE. Though I have a fix for time being, I would like a more elegant solution.
