This is an awesome idea but...
I just found that Modal should work pretty well for tooltips. Nice!
Is it a bit overkill for a simple tooltip though?
By the way, this kinda reminds me of CakePHP when it first started. It was fun talking to Michael before it got too big and he got kicked off his own project. ;)

Yikes! No backports likely. It's unfortunate that Zend did not put more work into the PHP4 compatability mode. I think they completely missed the boat on how important this is.
Let me know what you come up with in terms of mashing up the frameworks. Everything but the view helpers should translate pretty well to PHP4
Control.Modal is extremely small (around 10k uncompressed), so I don't think it would be overkill at all. The hoverbox was a last minute thought, but it seems to work for a lot of people.

I started writing my own today and I've made it through the controller to the view. I've learned that classes in php 4 suck... a lot. Scope is a real pain, reminds me of Flash.
Thanks for all your awesome code. Sounds like I'll be using Modal soon!

I'm still stuck in php4!
I have a big project at a large community website (380k+ members) and I'm trying to steer the boat towards MVC. So now I'm trying to write my own by mashing up Picora and CakePHP.
I would have loved to just use Picora. Oh well, thanks anyway! :)

P.S. Great website! You have a lot of really cool tools and I passed Modal over to one of the devs here. If you have a prototype-based tooltip coming soon, I'll be using it.
