IM.Tooltip // Teste de colisão com selects (See related posts)

Um exemplo de uso da função hitTest do site JSFromHell.com.
Implementei com base nela um esquema de Tooltips, baseado em um script que não me recordo onde peguei.

Com isso as selects que estiverem atrás dessa tooltip somem quando ela é mostrada.

Esse esquema transforma atributos title="" de elementos <a> em tooltips.
