Pop-ups in CCK Field Help Text

You could use the following:

popup_filter_process_tag('[popup title="Whatever title you want" text="Whatever text you'd like to popup"]');

to generate the html for a popup.

Would this actually be inserted into the Help Text for a cck field?

I have some very long forms with CCK and explanations would help a lot.

Thank you.

Edit: Tried it, guess not, any guidance would be appreciated.

Remember this is within PHP.

So you could, for example:

$form['my_text'] = array(
'#title' => 'My field',
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#description' => popup_filter_process_tag('[popup title="Help" text="This is just a text field"]')
);

Thanks, I have read up a bit on themes and settings, would this go into a php file of the theme?

Attached is a screenshot of zeropoint, from poking around it looks like theme-settings.php might be the place.

Would the actual name of the CCK Field replace the 'textfield' in the php code?

And if I am completely wrong I apologize for taking up your time!

Hold on, does the php go right in the cck field?

I noticed the php filter module.

Yah, I need explicit instructions otherwise I can't get this to work :(

One thing I have found is at Site Configuration -> Input Format the filtered and Full HTML can be configured for pop up.

Also, Tooltips was relatively easy.

Good luck.

I tried tool tip ... but all it does is create a input type which can be used for creating pop ups for node text. Is thr any way through which help text can be used as pop-up?

Beautytips does a good job with this.

Compact Forms is a bonus
