Hello Robert,

 

Nice question - You surely can. For that i will recommend what you do is - callback_column

there u return stuff like this -

<a href="#" title="What ever your tool tip">Whatever your content</a>

This way - u can restrict the content you want to display and also set the tool tip

 

and add a custom js - using set_js function

there - add the following script

<script>
window.onload() {
$( document ).tooltip();
}
</script>

pls do checkout the exact function available - window.onload or whatever - this should give u a nautral tooltip for the text overlay. This is all because GC also include jqueryui and JQuery UI do contain the feature of tooltip

Thanks for the replay Amith but i was looking for something else .. lets say you have a  column with text and there you add " Here is a text example with some text "

In the view GC with display only part of the text "Here is a text example ..." that is normal and good what i want to do is when you move your mouse over it to display the full text  " Here is a text example with some text ".

Hi Amit,

 

Is this set_js a CRUD function? or is it a CI function ?

Do I use set_js in view template ? or in controller ?

Hi archerwisdom

 

set_js is a function of CRUD and is usable in controller rather then a view
