How Do I.. Tooltips

In order to make adding content as easy as possible we have added tooltips for each field. In the first instance theit is a singe sentence that may prove enough, at the end of which is a link to a paragraph going int more details [and maybe a video link?]

 <span id="help00" class="helptip"> </span> Top tip - ALWAYS add a short description AND photo credit <a class="" href="/how-do-i-admin/how-do-i-add-story" target="_blank"><strong><em> more help...</strong></em></a> 

but first we wanted to make it stand out from the rest of the form. We did this with an svg format image of a question mark in a green bubble and added the code to the css file (/core/themes/claro/css/base/elements.css)
