Automatically show qTip (jQuery plugin) tooltip after page load

Question

Has anyone ever used qTip to create a tooltip that responds to a click on an element, but also is set to popup after the page loads? I tried playing around with setTimeout, but I can't seem to get it to load automatically.

Thanks!

You can define qtip to display in any event you like, simply by configuring it to not display in an event, but at your whim. For instance:

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('div.some-element').qtip({
        content: 'This is the tooltip',
        show: {
            when: false, // Don't specify a show event
            ready: true // Show the tooltip when ready
        },
        hide: false // Don't specify a hide event
    })
});
