Can we use markdown syntax for define hyperlink and tooltip for interactive?

This could be done! This is will not work outside the browser so the case with this syntax need to be covered for that case also. I would suggest syntax as per below:

click a1,b1 callBackFun
click a2,b2 link

tooltip a1,b1 Tooltip text 1
tooltip a2,b2 Tooltip text 2

where a1,2,b1 and b2 are nodes.

This in progress now. Will use the following syntax:

click a1,b1 callBackFun
click a2,b2 callBackFun "tooltip text"
click a3,b3 "link"
click a4,b4 "link" "tooltip text"

Good proposal - the syntax looks promising !

A fix is committed, but not yet released. Usage is described in the docs:

Fix for this issue was released in mermaid 0.5.2. Will close this now, let me know if you issues still remain.

I think mouse pointer should change to a hand when it's over a clickable element, if not it's not possible to know it. Also would be good to change them on over to show them too. Both things are just a matter of a bit CSS...

Another thing that I've seen is that the "open in a new window" behaviour should be configurable, because I want to use as an image map to other elements on the same page. In that way, if links could be done with regular HTML a tags instead of the need of Javascript that would be a plus, because it would be used on PDFs too.
