Add tooltip capability at table cell level to control for asp.net 2.0 page
Hi Experts,
I need to amend a class module which shows a calendar view of a schedule with ranges of dates held, for booked courses, in database shown in red. The control generates a table cell for each day. I need to show a tooltip whenever the mouse is over any of the cells for a course booking showing the course name and a delegate list. At present there is a course name attribute for the cell. How can I go about this?

ethos,
The table cells are declared as HTMLTableCells and don't have a tool tip property but have innerHTML and innerText properties. Can I use one of these and/or is it better to convert the HTMLCell, HTMLRow and HTMLTable elements to Cell, Row and Table respectively?

No, just use the title attribute...
<td title="Help Me">My Content Here </td>
<td title="Help Me">My Content Here </td>

The HTMLTableCell itself has no title attribute
Then either code it declarativley or use a custom attribute...
myHTMLTableCell.attributes
myHTMLTableCell.attributes

Good, but I want to add specific title content, dynamically, at runtime.
So I've added your code into the following statement:
if (SelectedDates.isSelectedD
{
TblCell.Attributes.Add("ti
TblCell.BgColor = "RED";
}
in the class module.
In the code behind for a particular page using the control I have:
Private Sub BindScheduleInfo()
Dim ds As DataSet
ds = Commerce.Common.BookingCou
Dim row As DataRow
For Each row In ds.Tables(0).Rows
If Not IsDBNull(row("ScheduleDate
CourseSchedule.SelectedDat
End If
Next
End Sub
and this makes the cells ,which represent days, red for days that fall in range of course dates.
How can I apply the database values to the cells text attribute values?

In class module have added:
public string ToolTipText
{
get
{
return m_tooltiptext;
}
set
{
m_tooltiptext = value;
}
}
Now I don't know how to call from page logic, if not code behind then do you mean in javascript on html page?

Dim a As New TableCell
a.ToolTip = "Help Me"
