Hi. I want to dynamically create dijit.TTooltip. How may I proceed on doing that?

I try to...

tip = new dijit.Tooltip();
tip.domNode = document.createElement('span');
tip.connectId = 'someid';
tip.postCreate();

I figure that I am wrong. Any pointer in how to dynamically create dijit.Tooltip would be great. Thanks in advance!

in theory, this should work:

var node = document.createElement('span');
node.innerHTML = "this is my popup content"
var tip = new dijit.Tooltip({ connectId:'someId' },node);
tip.startup();

thanks, what about other widgets?

thanks dante!

I was wondering how do I find out what kind of constructor does a certain type of widget have?

for example
new dijit.Tooltip({ connectId:'someId' },node);

what if I want to create other widgets like dijit.Menu dynamically for example?

lastly, how do i destroy a widget like Tooltip? Thanks.

so all widget uses similar constructor

and .destroy() is the method to destroy a widget, simple enough :)
