using tooltipster to display tool tips as part of innerHTML for a div

I am using tooltipster to generate tool tips. All works fine except in the situation where I need to set the contents of a div based on user input using a simple JavaScript function. The div contents consists of images, when hovering over each image, a tool tip should display. However, the tip displays as the default browser behaves for displaying title= with an image. The JavaScript I use is simple:
function setAwards() {
var awardsdiv=document.getElementById("awards"); awardsdiv.innerHTML="";
if (document.setvalues.superstar.checked == true) awardsdiv.innerHTML=awardsdiv.innerHTML + "<img class=\"tooltip\" title=\"Description of award\" width=\"16\" src=\"/pix/superstar.png\" alt=\"[ Super Star ]\" />";
[... stuff removed ...]
}
Is there a way to make this work? Tool tips do display elsewhere on this web page, so the resources needed appear to be set up correctly.
Thank you!

You must initialize the tooltip ($(...).tooltipster({...})) after you have inserted your new HTML content or use delegation.
For "automatic" initialization, you might want to use delegated event listeners for that, see https://github.com/iamceege/tooltipster/issues/499

Replicating google auto complete with jquery autocomplete

Trying to accomplish the above result with jquery.googleSuggest.js is giving me a lot of trouble as can be seen here. Some of the original CSS of jquery UI seems to be shining tough. Anyone any hints on the most elegant way to fix this? (And how to add the grey "gle", after "goo" behavior in the screenshot above?)
HTML
<div class="suggestions_box">
<ul>
<li>f<b>acebook</b></li>
<li>f<b>unda</b></li>
</ul>
</div>
JS
var div = $("<div>").appendTo("#inputs")
, input = $("<input>").appendTo(div);
input.googleSuggest({ service: "web" });

Your custom css in the linked fiddle is creating problems. Removing all the css and adding external jquery-ui.css makes the dropdown appear correctly (as seen in this fork of your fiddle).
Basically, you only need:
// html placeholder for the input
<div id="inputs"></div>
and
// js init code
var input = $("<input>").appendTo($("#inputs"));
input.googleSuggest({ service: "web" });
Also, your other question has already been answered in this thread: How to implement a google suggest-like input field? It's a neat trick accomplished by overlaying two input fields one above the other one, with the lower one disabled and set to the value of first suggested entry.

Resizing a specific TinyMCE editor added by JS

I am adding/replacing two textareas with TinyMCE via two different javascript clicks/calls. They have different IDs and are being added correctly by the 'execCommand' call:
tinymce.execCommand('mceAddControl',true,'comment1');
However, I am having trouble resizing the objects when there are more than one on screen. If there is just one I am able to successfully call 'resizeTo' using the 'activeEditor' to resize the object, like this:
tinymce.execCommand('mceAddControl',true,'comment1');
var ed = tinymce.activeEditor;
ed.theme.resizeTo(400, 200);
But when there is more than one editor, I cannot use 'activeEditor' and I don't know how to select a specific editor to resize. I have tried the following, but it didn't work:
var edd = tinymce.get('comment2');
edd.theme.resizeTo(350,306);
Any help/suggestions? Thanks!

In order to have to working tinymce editors with textareas as source elements you have given each of those testareas a unique id. This id will help you to get the correct editor instance.
Use
var editor = tinymce.get('your_textarea_id');
to get the correct editor. That's all.

Adding text to a speech bubbles in real time

I have an image that will form the background of an html page, and I want to superimpose speech bubbles over it. I've figured out how to make bubbles with css, and set their placement. But I cannot figure out how I will populate the bubbles (the div elements). Text messages will populate files, and I need to grab the strings and display them in the bubbles, refreshing the bubble content as messages come in. Any thoughts?

Assuming one of your bubbles contains a DIV which looks like this:
<div id="bubble1">This is the text</div>
You can use Javascript to easily change the text content. Using a JS library like jQuery is recommended. Here is a code example which changes the text:
<script>
$(document).ready(function()
{
$('#bubble1').text('This is the changed text'); // to change the text
$('#bubble1').html('This has <b>some</b> formatting'); // to change the html
});
</script>
Don't forget to include jQuery itself with a line like:
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.8.3.min.js"></script>
I couldn't understand where you are getting your strings from, if you let me know, I could update the answer.
If you are unfamiliar with jQuery, take a look here.

I think this will answer your question:

Keep in mind that this is css3, so older browsers can have problems with that.

How to add dynamic customized ShareThis button?

I would like to use ShareThis on my site and add multiple buttons for the same service to share multiple objects. This is possible but I could only get the buttons to be in one of the default styles. How can I add buttons through javascript and still get them with a customized image?
stWidget.addEntry({
"service":"facebook",
"element": $('.fb_custom').get(1),
"url":"http://sharethis.com",
"title":"sharethis",
"type":"large", // one of the default styles
"text":"ShareThis" ,
"image":"http://www.softicons.com/download/internet-icons/social-superheros-icons-by-iconshock/png/256/sharethis_hulk.png", // image TO BE SHARED
"summary":"this is description1"
});

No problem, using type="custom" did the trick..wasn't on the doc, at least I couldn't find it!

Just create new buttons and put them on your server. Like
this:
"image":"http://www.MYOWNSERVER.com/images/myart.png
