Tool tips

[Gin_bee]

Have a piece of code that is kinda working at the minute the only problem is I want a tool tip and not an alert to occur when I scroll over text in a grid.

The code I'm using is..

<TD VALIGN=MIDDLE ALIGN=LEFT class="listname"><A HREF="javascript:myvoid()" onMouseover= "alert('<%=ReadNewValue()%>')">

<SPAN ><font face="Arial" font color="#000000"><%=rsTEMPValue("sTypes")%></font></SPAN></A>
</TD



What replaces alert? If you need any more info please let me know. Cheers.

I think you can use the title attribute for this. Ex: < a href="javascript: myvoid" title="<%=ReadNewValue()%>" >

Sorry if this isn't what you are looking for.

You can use image tag to get the tool tip...

yeah, title is the best way to go if you don't want an image. The only problem is that it works only with IE.

Can't you just use the ALT tag? It looks like a tooltip.

Yeah, but that is only if you are using an image.
