Alternative to tooltips

[Stanley Rodowicz]

What is the best way to display tooltips? I've noticed that this
function was taken out of version 2. Will there be functionality added
again in the future or is there an alternative method?

You're correct, the tooltip functionality that existed in the 1.x versions wasn't transferred into 2.x. Personally, I use the description element property to provide my users with any additional information about a form element. The description will be rendered in italic text below the element's label. Give it a try and let me know if that alternate solution works for you.

$form->addElement(new PFBC\Element\Textbox("My Textbox", "MyTextbox", array("description" => "This is a description of my form element.")));

That's a good solution! Thanks Andrew! I would however like to see a
tooltip feature in the future (if at all possible). It really was a
nice feature.

Just to provide a little background info...I removed tooltips and many other features (email, google spreadsheets, etc) that existed in v1.x because I felt that the "form" class was trying to do too much. I found myself spending more time on these auxiliary features instead of improving the core functionality which was suffering.
