Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is jquery plugin for that already: http://bassistance.de/jquery-plugins/jquery-plugin-tooltip/

There are more http://visionwidget.com/inspiration/web/495-jquery-tooltip-plugins.html

Or you could just write some easy jQ script:

(HTML)

<div class="tooltipped box"></div>
<div class="tooltipped box"></div>

(JS)

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('.tooltipped').click(function(){
        $('#tooltip').remove();
        $('body').append('<div id="tooltip" class="tooltip">This is tooltip</div>');
        var p = $(this).position();
        $('#tooltip').css({top: p.top, left: p.left+$(this).width()});
    });
});

(CSS)

.box { border: 1px solid green; width: 90px; height: 60px; }
.tooltip { border: 1px solid red; width: 50px; height: 50px; position: absolute; }

Use qTip.

   $(document).ready(function() {


           $("#qtip").qtip({
            content: 'ToolTip',
            style: {
                name: 'red'
            },
            show: 'mousedown',
            hide: 'mouseout',
            position: {
                target: 'mouse',
                adjust: {
                    mouse: true,
                    x: -180,
                    y: -30,
                }
            }
        });


});
