ZeroClipboard hover effect

I'm currently working on implementing a flash component similar to the one used on retailmenot.com, but I've encountered some challenges in the process.

After spending days searching for solutions, I managed to get the zeroclipboard flash element to function correctly with multiple coupon codes. When I click on a code, it opens a new URL as expected.

However, what I'm struggling with now is trying to display a "Copy and Open Site" box, appearing like a tooltip, on the right side of the element I hover over. I have tried various jQuery methods, such as using $('.class_element').hover( function (){ } display new div on the left), but since the flash element is positioned on top, the action is not triggered.

Another attempt was modifying the Zeroclipboard.js file by adding an ID to the absolute div containing the flash and applying a hover event to it, yet this also did not work.

I even experimented with addEventListener('mouseover', function(){}) on the Zeroclipboard element, but again, no success.

If you have any suggestions on how I can create a tooltip-like feature for flash components positioned above DOM elements, I would greatly appreciate it!

Thank you!

Answer №1

Typically, Flash is displayed in a separate window rather than within the DOM. To integrate Flash into the DOM, include the parameter wmode with a value of opaque. If using swfobject to load Flash, use the following syntax:

so.addParam('wmode','opaque');

In addition, a Flash element requires knowledge of the height and width of its containing element, preventing the use of .hide() and .show() for hover effects. One method, inspired by jQuery UI tabs, involves positioning the 'hidden' element off-screen. When necessary, move it to the correct position and return it to its hidden location when not in use.

Answer №2

To ensure functionality, incorporating event listeners is essential. Personally, I find them effective when used alongside OpenTip. Here's my approach:

var clip = new ZeroClipboard($("#copy-button"));
clip.addEventListener('onMouseOver', function(){
    console.log("mouseOver"); // implementation of tool tip display
});

clip.addEventListener('onMouseOut', function(){
    console.log("mouseOut"); // execution to hide the tool tip
});
