title= does not work

In this line
aI("text=Danen Roots;url=http://roots.danen.org/;target=_blank;title=Check out the Danen ancestry;status=Check out the Danen ancestry;");
I cannot get "title=" to work as a "screentip". Is there a special trick to it or are not all tag elements supported?

TIA

Yes, it does not (yet).

Lots of goodies coming shortly, including tool tips. Since Andy wants this to be 508 compliant, I'm hoping title will be in there as well.

Thanks, John. Any way to find out for sure from Andy?

It's on its way.

Should see it in the next release.

We do, at present, offer tooltips as can be seen here http://www.milonic.com/menusample.php?sampleid=6 and also on our website when viewing the samples menus. This may not work with many text readers though.

Cheers
Andy

I just had a look at tool tips page on mac ie 5.1.7, I'm not sure what I should be seeing.

The menu font size is larger than normal extending over in small browser, the tool tip covers the first submenu. Sorry to say it doesn't appear very practical. However, I personally feel that I could easily add a submenu header somewhere to do the equivalent of a tool tip.
Just letting you know,

I think I'll wait for your next release, Andy. I checked out the sample and saw the tooltip some of the time, but not always.

Any idea when you expect the next release? No pressure!

It worked here with no problems. However, guaranteed the screen readers won't know what to do with it (yes, boss - I know you know ). Title is, of course, a must.
