Dynamic ToolTip using AJAX and possibly "Title" Attribute from anchor.
Hi
I know there are some examples of using ajax to produce dynamic tooltips for page items. However, I need to try a different method as they don't seem to work nicely with any IE browser below v7.0. What tends to happen is that if there is a select list on the page it tends to give preference to the select list over the tooltip so it obtructs the users view of the tooltip. I was wondering whether it would be be possible to wrap a anchor html tag around the labels text and use a the "TITLE" attribute to make the help text displays. I tried placing a div in the title eg:
<a class="t100OptionalLabelwithHelp" title = <DIV id = TITLE_TXT></div> href="javascript:void(return false);" onmouseover="AJAX_HELP(this,'#CURRENT_ITEM_ID#')" id="#CURRENT_ITEM_ID#_label">
but that did not work. I thought this would be a better option though another option would be to some how get the select list to take less preference to the tooltip generated.
