[mapguide-users] Adding marker on the fly with tooltip

[Jackie Ng]

What I mean is that the xml fragment you specified does not constitute a
layer definition document. 

Therefore there must be some kind of "outer" xml document that that fragment
would have be merged with to form a valid layer definition document.

Looking at the php code (and I'm just grabbing thin air here). I'm guessing
$factory->CreateLayerDefinition() is where the outer xml document comes
from. So take a look at that function, as that is probably where you insert
your tooltip tag.
