Span tags & column hover

HCL Domino Domino Forum

I am using span tags around the field name in one view column. Unfortunately, I get different results in IE7 and FF. The 1 instance where IE7 seems to win… :). In the case of IE7, it shows a square pop-up with a respectable paragraph. FF only shows one line. Is there another way around these limitations? …or is there a better way?

I went back and looked at the OverLib JS option. Seems to do what I need… but how best to incorporate into view column? I see it uses the following to call the box:

<a href=“javascript:void(0);” onmouseover="return overlib('This is an ordinary

popup.');" onmouseout=“return nd();”>here

Could I use this as a column formula and replace “return overlib('This…” with the field name?

There are plans to extend the title tooltip in Firefox 3, but there’s an extension for earlier (and current) versions:
