Adding balloon help to fields

I would like to add "balloon help" to some of the fields in my app. By "balloon help" I mean either the help message pops up whenever the mouse is moved over the field or a small blue circle at the end of the field can be clicked for information about the field. Is this possible and if so how would I accomplish this?

For <input /> fields:

Code: Select all

$j("#fieldname").attr("title", "your tooltip text");
Not for complex fields like lookup, video, map, image, date, ...
