Delicious Link Tooltop

Script Summary: Shows Delicious info for the target page in a tooltip when you hover over a link.

Script homepage

Thumb

Oops typo.

Display the title of the target page, the number of people who bookmarked it, and the most common tags for the page.

If there are no Delicious bookmarks for the target URL, the script will attempt to show info for the homepage of the target website (top page of domain). The tooltip will have a red background to indicate that the info being displayed is not for the actual link you hovered.

If you click on a link, then the hovering is canceled, so no tooltip will appear.

Results are cached on a per-page basis. So if you hover over say 4 links to see their info, feel free to hover over the earlier ones again, you won't be re-spamming the fantastic Delicious service.

Disadvantages:

If the site you are on has its own tooltips (e.g. Wikipedia) then you will end up with two tooltips, which is a little messy.

Maybe you didn't want a tooltip at all, but were hovering for some other reason. Tough luck, you're gonna get one anyway!
