  This fixes an IE 'Operation aborted' error that appeared when hovering a tooltip
  element before the DOM was loaded [mixtoon]

Prototip 2.0.2 - July 29, 2008

* Added hideOthers option to close all other tooltips when opening.

* Added Tips.hideAll() to hide all visible tooltips.

* Some refactoring on the way the highest zIndex is set.
  Tips.visible will now hold all visible Tip objects instead
  of the tooltip elements that had no reference to iframeShims.

Prototip 2.0.1.4 - July 17, 2008

* Fixed IE6 iframeShim on tooltips that hook to the mouse.

* Used overflow:hidden on the iframeShim for more accurate dimensions.

Prototip 2.0.1.3 - June 11, 2008

* Made tooltips work on textareas and input elements.
  Changed the mouseenter|leave method to handle these elements. [gepree]

* Made sure blur and focus events work on input elements and textareas.

* Compressed part of the CSS that doesn't need to be modified.

Prototip 2.0.1.2 - June 04, 2008

* Fixed some cases of incorrect tooltip positioning in IE when stems are used.

* Made sure the CSS validates.

* Speeded up stem positioning on all browsers by seperating functions for Safari2.
  Only Safari2 needs to use a different stem positioning method.

Prototip 2.0.1.1 - June 03, 2008

* Fixed issue in the CSS that prevented rounded corners from working properly on a
  Strict doctype [Leleu Victorien]

Prototip 2.0.1 - May 30, 2008

* Fixed a bug where stems at the top became invisible after flipping over vertically.

* Added options.images, allowing you to set a different image directory for your tooltip,
  or for a style when defined in Prototip.Styles [gregD]

* Fixed text in the helper message that shows when you don't have the correct Prototype version.

Prototip 2.0.0 - May 29, 2008

* Added rounded corners with a radius and a border you can set, much like the Lightview rounded corners.

* Speeded up the iframe positioning on IE6 by copying tooltip position instead of recalculation hooks.

* Fixed clearing on tooltips, sometimes IE6 did not clear correctly, making content disappear.
Added .prototip .clearfix to the CSS.

* Added stems that give tooltips the speech bubble effect.
Stems will flip to the other side when you keep tooltips within the viewport.
Stems are created using PNG images placed inside the style folder.

* Added mouse hooking so you can hook your tooltip to the mouse, turning hooking into
a complete solution for tooltip positioning.
example:

// This will hook the bottom left corner of the tooltip to the mouse position.
new Tip('id', 'test', { hook: { tip: 'bottomLeft', mouse: true }});

* Added Safari2 specific code to make rounded corners work when hiding tooltips.

* Added missing positions to hooking. 'bottomLeft is the same as 'leftBottom'.
This makes it possible to combine hooking with stems and still have them flip over
properly when you keep tooltips in the viewport.

* Extending elements with .prototip when they are given a tooltip.
This gives you a few useful methods, allowing the following:

$(element).prototip.show();
$(element).prototip.hide();
$(element).prototip.remove();

* Made .prototip.show() work if a mouse event is required to open the tooltip.

* Made .prototip.show() work in scrolling containers.

* Made tooltips work on image map AREA tags.

* Added Prototip.Styles, a collection of styles that keeps the code you have
inside your tooltip calls to a minimum. In combination with CSS it's all
you need to get a new style up in seconds.

* Moved the images to an image directory you can set under Tips.options.images
using a relative or absolute url. This keeps your CSS folder free of images.
Prototip styles are stored in 'images/prototip/styles/' folder.

* Switched to PNG images, all images are now PNG's and will automatically be pngfixed on IE6.
close.png and close_hover.png are stored inside the style folder.

* Fixed ajax loader image for IE6.

* Removed Scriptaculous effects. IE is not yet ready to handle effects on canvas elements and PNG images.
This guarantees the same result in all supported browsers.

* Created a loader.gif for each style instead of only one loader image.

Prototip 1.3.5.1 - May 18, 2008

* Made sure that ajax tooltips opening on click don't cancel their loading when you mouseout [jakobsen]

Prototip 1.3.5 - May 14, 2008

* Fixed a bug where click actions on the tooltip got blocked in some situations [jakobsen, thushara]

* Increased the response time on tooltips that open on mouse movement.

Prototip 1.3.4 - May 1, 2008

* Remove ajax loader elements from the dom once the loading is completed and create them 
  when the tooltip is created. They are now only in the dom when required [thushara]

Prototip 1.3.3 - April 29, 2008

* Prevent duplicate Ajax requests when hovering tooltips [tcb]

Prototip 1.3.2 - April 28, 2008

* Made hooking work inside scrollable containers [Luke Cunningham, forgueam]

Prototip 1.3.1 - April 23, 2008

* Made sure tooltips with images or other content that requires loading stay 
  within the viewport [Nick Small]

Prototip 1.3.0 - April 15, 2008

* Added Ajax tooltips [S. Schonberg]

* Updated CSS and added Ajax loader with it's gif animation.

* Improvements to the effect part, preventing flicker.

* Moved the hooking concept to Tips#hook
  Example: Tips.hook(element, target, {
    element: 'topLeft',
    target: 'bottomRight'  
  });
  This makes individual tips smaller and allows to hook any element with minimum calculation.

* Using event delegation on the close button. Anything you push in with the class 'close'
  will automatically become a custom close button.

Prototip 1.2.6.1 - March 30, 2008

* Added minified and minified+gzipped version to package.

* hideOn can be false, useful when you want to close using hideAfter.

  hideOn: { element: 'ul li .myOwnCloseButton', event: 'click' }

* Added the option to insert a String or an Element as content.

* Added hideAfter option to close the tooltip after a
  period of inactivity, not moving over tooltip or element.

* Prevented IE memory leaks. Added Prototip.unload(),
  automatically called for you on unload cleaning up the dom.
