Tool Tip for Interactive Report column data element

SleepDeprivedInSeattleMar 21 2014 — edited Mar 25 2014

I have a report which has a column (CURRENT_UNIT). I would like to be able to add a "tool tip". I have done this before using a classic report by the following (borrowed from another APEX example):

Add this CSS

a.rapxxx{

    position:relative;

    z-index:24;

    text-decoration:none}

a.rapxxx:hover{z-index:25; background-color:#ff0}

a.rapxxx span{display: none}

a.rapxxx:hover span{ /*the span will display just on :hover state*/

    display:block;

    position:absolute;

    top:-20px;

    left:20px;

    width:20em;

    border:1px solid darkblue;

    text-align: center;

    background-color:lightyellow;

    color:darkblue;

}

And on the COLUMN FORMATTING, add this:

<a href="#" class="rapxxx">#CURRENT_UNIT#<span>#UNIT_NM#</span></a>

But when I try this on the Interactive Report, I don't get the hover tool tip.  The href displays correctly, I just don't get the value from the span.

Can someone please help me?

Using APEX 4.2.3

Internet Explorer version 9

Thank you
