Bug#430143: pts.cgi: use tooltips to explain what the different checkboxes mean.



Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: wishlist

The script at http://packages.qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/pts.cgi could use the
"title" attribute to specify a small help that is displayed on most browsers
as a tooltip explaining the meaning of the different options.
I think that is more faster than the link to the documentation, I don't know
why but I always forget what the different options mean so I always go to the
documentation, waiting for it to download and display and needing to open
another tab in my browser and then close it.
For example this line:
<td><input type="checkbox" name="kw_bts" value="1" id="kw_bts" checked="checked"> <label for="kw_bts">bts</label></td>
could be changed like this:
<td title="Sends all bug reports and discussions."><input type="checkbox" name="kw_bts" value="1" id="kw_bts" checked="checked"> <label for="kw_bts">bts</label></td>

Alternatively, this checkboxes could be displayed vertically with a small description at the right:
[ ] bts: Sends all bug reports and discussions.
[ ] bts-control: Notifications about bug reports status changes.

Thanks for your consideration.
