C# - Alternative To OverLibWrapper For Displaying Control Tooltips?
Oct 13, 2010
I looked into a nice way to display tooltips dynamically and I found OverLibWrapper, which was exactly what I needed.
I have all the tooltip data stored in a custom configuration section, the tooltips are bound to their respective controls during Page_Load.
I did a quick test and worked fine. The problem came up when I realized that OverLibWrapper didn't work on masterpages. Our website has uses quite a few masterpages, so taking them out isn't an option.
I was wondering if there's anything like OverLibWrapper that I could use.
EDIT:
What I'm looking for is a control to display good-looking tooltips on mouseover preferably instantly like overlib (nothing fancy because I'm just displaying raw text) in a dynamic way, because the tooltip property in ASP.NET is not very pretty and takes a while to appear. For example let's say I have a collection of Messages:
class Message
{
string ctrlid, msgtodisplay;
}
And when the page is loaded:
TooltipManager manager;
foreach(var m in messages)
{
Tooltip tltp=new Tooltip;
m.ControlID=m.ctrlid;
m.Message=m.msgtodisplay;
manager.AddTooltip(tltp);
}
So basically something that offers the functionality of Tooltip and TooltipManager.
I am working on a Report Module for a DNN website and have found that the reports do not show in the reportviewer control if there is no ScriptManager control on the module. I am not sure where but somewhere I read it was needed. THe problem is when it is on the module so the reportviewer works correctly I am getting some errors with my other controls( mainly drop downs I want to use for selecting the reports) I am not getting an error just the DDL is not showing up on the page when scriptmanager is included but it does show up when its not included of course then the reportviewer shows no report.
I have user control page (.acsx file), which has following
<form action=abcd.aspx id="safsdf"> <input name="q" type="text" value="Search this site" size="13" onfocus="this.value='';"/> //this is input box <input type="submit" name="sa" value="Submit" /> //this is input button </form>
When user click on submit button, then it postback to same page. I have another page , which reference to this user control and that is why multiple <form> tag appears on one single page and it cause my webpage to layout incorrectly. I would like to remove <form> tag from my above user control and replace with some other alternative, which does postback to same page without using <form> tag on user control (I have to remove <form> tag from user control because I must keep my <form> tag on other page).

I have created an asp:listbox and in the cs file, I am trying to bind it to a datasource. However, I want to put in tooltips for each option so that when you hover over a multiple-listbox you will see the name of the item in both the listbox and the tooltip.The following code is what I have tried (which obviously will not work), which will just put a big tooltip for the "select" html tag, instead of the "option" tags individually.I think I need a loop, but I'm not sure how to add attributes to each element and the ASP documentation is no help. I bet it's an easy solution, but I can't figure out how to do it.
I have googled this and tried soo many examples online but none of the example does that i really want. THis is basically what i want I have a gridview of the following form below ID PLACE A)BOSTON B)NEWYORK.now, I would like a situation similar to this where basically once the mouse is moved over A or B, it should show the header which is ID. No javascript please.
I am using Ajax CalendarExtender , the calendar work well. I want to hilight and tooltips holiday that I define on calendar. I found some similar post , but failed to work. Below is my code.
I am using a treeview in a web part that I am writing. When the user moves the mouse over the +/- icon in the tree, a tooltip is shown: "Expand FolderName" or "Collapse FolderName". Because there is a requirement to localize this web part, I need to be able to set a localized tooltip, replacing the english one. (That english string appears, even when the machine is running a Chinese OS.)how to accomplish this localization?
I'm new to ASP.NET (both the site and the platform) and am I wondered if you guys could help me figure out how to add tooltips to a DataGrid column, specifically, the HyperLinkColumn (example shown below). I'm sure there's some magical way to do this in JavaScript but a search turned up nothing.
I am trying to add a tooltip to each AxisX label on a Stacked Bar Chart. It displays the same value all the way across. Below is the code With.ToolTip =
Chart1.ChartAreas("ChartArea1").AxisX"Month = #VALX" .Interval = 1End With
I have been asked to display tooltips instead of plain text when form validation fails. We are currently using asp.net MVC 3 data annotation validators to display validation error messages. I am still fairly new to MVC and I have spent hours online looking for a clean solution
had an tab control with more than 10 tabs, each tabs im using button but while button click event the Updateprogress not displaying, may i know the reason and how to solve it?
In my scenerio, i've a dropdownlistbox by which i want to filter, a textbox for the text to filter and two textbox for specifying from and to date.
A gridview control for displaying the filtered data and a sqldatasource control and a commandbutton called search.
The following code is used to filter the data in database and it works properly. But when i click on edit in gridview, the gridview displays no records and again when i click on search button the data is displayed on the gridview displayed with the selected row in editmode.
I have a page with 6 large GridViews on it, and I'd like to add tooltips to the headers on each of the GridViews. Now I know how to add the tooltips, I'm planning to simply use a variation of the code at the bottom, but I'm wondering the best way to go about loading the data for the tooltips.
What I have is a table with descriptions of each of the columns, and I want to use those descriptions as the tooltips, but I need to do it in as light an implementation as possible, so hopefully I'm not going to the database too much, certianly I don't want to have to make a trip to the database for each cell, I'd like to load all of the data only once for each page load.
I'm attempting to build a page that displays the same set of information of different "items" in a grid or table. It's akin to a shopping page that displays products in for e.g. a 4 by 3 table.
I came across datagrid and gridview but they display grouped information according to columns and each row representing one item only.
Is there a control that displays data in a very basic grid format instead of tabular form, preferably with built in pagination abilities?
