Hyperlink tooltip dont show up 1

[compu66]

Hi,



Here is my code

For Each Task As ExamTask In Tasks(AccNum)
Dim lnkTask As New HyperLink

lnkTask.ID = "lnkTask_" + Task.ExamTasksID.ToString()

lnkTask.ImageUrl = Task.ImageURL
lnkTask.NavigateUrl = "Javascript:window.showModalDialog('../Reports/AddExamTask.aspx?acc=" & AccNum.ToString & "&tid=" & Task.ExamTasksID & "','ExamTasks','dialogWidth=700 px,dialogHeight=600 px,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no');document.forms(0).submit();"

lnkTask.ToolTip = String.Join(" | ", Task.Comments.ToArray())

Item.Cells(ColumnIndex).Controls.Add(lnkTask)

Next

Here the tooltip dont show up.Not able to figure out the reason.

Thanks for any ideas and help in advance.

What does the rendered code look like for the anchor tag?

not sure why the tooltips aren't showing up, but you could add a repeater to the cell and bind the list of tasks to the cell, instead of the current method.

<asp:repeater id="repeater" runat="server">
  <itemtemplate>
      <asp:ImageLink 
           id="link" 
           runat="server" 
           ImageUrl='<%# eval(ImageUrl)%>' 
           NavigateUrl='<%#Javascript:window.showModalDialog('../Reports/AddExamTask.aspx?acc=" & AccNum & "&tid=" & eval("ExamTasksID")& "','ExamTasks','dialogWidth=700 px,dialogHeight=600 px,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no');document.forms(0).submit();%>' 
           ToolTip='<%# string.Join(" | ", ((List<string>)eval("Comments")).ToArray())%>' />
  </itemtemplate>
</asp:repeater>

Repeater repeater = (Repeater)Item.FindControl("repeater");
repeater.DataSource = Tasks(AccNum);
repeater.DataBind();

note: you will need a protected Readonly property to access AccNum for the navigate url
