It's so easy when you know how. =) Thanks once again, Gumbo.

I've found that this also seems to work, although it's possible the plugin I'm using does some filtering, too: `$( '.tooltip[title!=""]' )`

@Jeff: Nice, didn’t know that attribute selector since it’s not part of CSS 3. But mine is CSS 3 compliant.

@Gumbo: What part of my selector has anything to do with CSS 3? I think what it says is "all .tooltip classes with a title attribute not equal to an empty string."

@Jeff: There is no attribute selector like `[attr!="value"]`. The negation needs to be expressed with `:not()`: `:not([attr="value"])`.
