Answer 1

I think dijit.TooltipDialog is what you need.

Answer 2

I did that by adjusting default absolute position of dijit.dialog using dojo..

I used following code to readjust absolute position of dialog to what I want..

dijit.byId('dialog').show();

dojo.style('dialog','background-color','#AAAAAA');

var co = dojo.coords('period'); // element below which I want to display dialog

dojo.style('md1','top',(co.y + 25)+'px');
dojo.style('md1','left', co.x+'px');

Hopefully this will help someone..

Thanks.

Thank you amar4kintu!

Suddenly my dialogs weren't centered anymore, after I had scrolled vertically (in IE7). I don't know exactly how your code works, but it does. And never change a winning team... :)
