Alternative to qTip (jQuery Tooltip Plugin) - jquery-plugins

Can anyone recommend a good alternative to qTip, the jQuery tooltip plugin? I feel like it's slowing down my web app because its adding canvas elements and event listeners all over the place.

GitHub.com uses tipsy. I trust that they have chosen pretty carefully, so that's what I would go for.
The Bootstrap tooltips are "inspired" by Tipsy as well.

jQuery Simpletip.

Take a look at jQueryTOOLS Tooltip

Yeah I had problems with qTip also.
I ended up making my own. This seems to be happening more often. I just can't find what I want and end up making what I need.

Plus it has themes

don't forget about the Jquery UI tooltip
And Tooltip Demo

I fount https://github.com/iamceege/tooltipster with almost all essential functions of qTip.
The qTip js file is 64kb while this is 17kb. Which was important in our project.

Vaadin - Is there a possibility of using overlays for my own forms?

I have an idea to making a form (in Vaadin 14 LTS)which would overlaid main layout for better user experience (like LoginOverlay). The thing is, vaadin-overlay is meant only for internal use and I presume I can't use that for my own form... Is there other way to make overlays?
Thanks in advance :)
You can use the Dialog to make an overlay. See https://vaadin.com/docs/latest/ds/components/dialog for code examples.

Combination of ember.js and Jqgrid

I am trying to build a Jqgrid component using ember.js. Is there any existing solution for this, please let me know.
Thanks
As for jQuery plugins probably the easiest solution is to manually manage a view's content by using the view's didInsertElement hook: http://jsbin.com/opobeg/1/edit
The general idea is to access the view's element with this.$(), which returns a jQuery object. Don't forget to tear down event listeners etc. you attached here in the willDestroyElement hook!
Yehuda's article describes this mechanism quite well. Although the article very outdated (still referring to SproutCore 2.0), the basic idea haven't changed much since then.
We have done many cool stuff with https://github.com/Addepar/ember-table as base.

ckEditor 4.1 - How do I remove inline tooltip

The behavior of the tooltip in the inline editor is so annoying while typing or moving cursor around. : How do I remove it or change the its behavior?
I want to show the image but have not enough reputation. :) http://ckeditor.com/forums/CKEditor/How-do-I-remove-the-inline-editor-tooltip
This issue will be resolved in CKEditor 4.2. You can use proposed solution if you wish to have it immediately or just wait a couple of weeks for stable 4.2.
apparently the ckeditor team didn't think this was important or easily achievable:
http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/9896
Don't give up, i think if you find the right element within the CKEDITOR iframe, you could disable it using JQuery.
You could always give it a go:

Besides that it's not more than a title attribute to the editor.

make current and future elements draggable

I have a little web application in which I create DIVs by clicking on a button. I would like to make these created DIVs draggable, so I did a little research, and read about the "livequery" plugin which is now unavailable.
Is there a solution for my problem ?
Thank you for your help :)
Check out the LiveQuery plugin

Modal popup in Classic ASP?

I write in .NET and in classic ASP.
I want to create a modal popup in ASP, like in .NET how the parent page can be disabled and turned a different color.
Is this possible in ASP?
Or is there no easy solution to get this done?
If possible...how?
You're going to use Javascript to make something like that, I'd recommend you use jQuery. There is a lot of prebuilt libraries to help you do that.
For the modal box, you might start with the jQuery Dialog.
Just use a javascript library to do this. jQuery is a popular choice and there a number of plugins to do this.
jqModal
thickbox
Yes, of course, but if you are writing the Javascript yourself, you can just create a hidden DIV tag that has the same exact page rendered, but with a 15% gray - transparent .gif file that sits on top of what is displayed. Then you change that DIV tag to visable when the Modal dialog is launched, and change it back when it's closed. Simple.
There are some great JS libraries out there that can help you.
I like jQuery and YUI for their ease of use.
Try this link and look around at some of their Panel offerings.. all of which have a Modal setting that will grey out the background.

Good Luck~
" how the parent page can be disabled and turned a different color"
You can use the ibox javascript, I have used it with good results.

I'd put a vote in for stickywin from the clientcide site. Its all Mootools bases and very sweet to use.
