GridView - ToolTip

  • Thread starter Thread starter Guest
  • Start date Start date
It is not that difficult. Basically, you need to handle client side events
onmouseover and onmouseout for the grid cells. In the event handlers you
will control the cursor shape and make a tooltip with some javascripting and
background images. You will need to setup the event handlers in the grid's
RowDataBound event with the TableCell's Attributes collection. You can pass
the tooltip text in the ToolTip property and pick it up on client side in
the <td>'s title property.

I am not able to follow "In the event handlers you will control the cursor
shape and make a tooltip with some javascripting and background images."

This means you have to be able to produce some javascript that will achieve
the desired effect.
