Inconsistent behavior with Alias info popup
Added by Jim Pingle over 13 years ago.
Updated over 10 years ago.
Description
When you mouseover an alias when viewing firewall rules, nat rules, and so on, the info box pops up showing the addresses and such. However, it does not automatically disappear in some cases.
The box shows up below and to the right of the mouse pointer, but if the mouse pointer never actually enters or passes over the box, it does not disappear. For example if you move your mouse up and to the left and then around, the box never goes away. But if you swipe the cursor over the box, it disappears after a few moments.
Before it was switch to the new style, it would always disappear after the mouse moved, no matter which way it went.
This may affect other features using the same style JS pop-up box.

Those popups contain Edit links. If you somehow get a mouseout event handler on the link to close the tooltip [which I'm not able to do by replacing domTT_mouseout() calls with domTT_deactivate() calls], you won't be able to mouse into the tooltip to click the Edit link.
Thoughts?

Also at least I fixed some imbalanced HTML tags. :-)

For now we can just document this behavior and revisit the question for 2.2. I think it's OK how it is for 2.1 so long as the behavior is explained.

While you're in there, I suspect security issues in the Alias code.

Not a bug, it's how dom_tt velcro tooltips work
