Example 7: Object Detection

There are some elements that overlap the tooltips, such as select form elements and flash animations. DOM Tooltip can hunt down and hide these elements that cannot be overlapped.* The solution is somewhat crude, but necessary in order to ensure the tooltip remains visible.

Hunt and destroy

* This problem is very browser specific. In IE, select elements are drawn using the native window library widgets and are thus sitting on top of the html page layer. Therefore, no html element can go above these decorations.
