Button Tooltip

[flujan]

I'm trying to get a button tooltip to work but the code I'm dealing with was
created by someone else and I got it to work in the Development instance of my
application but when I promoted to Quality, it didn't work. I just want to
give the user some information that pops up when the user mouses over a button
on a Coldfusion page. Anyone know how to do that? Thanks

It does not work in all browsers, but have you tried using the "title" attribute?

<input type="button" title="My tooltip here">

Flash forms has a nice tooltip attribute feature in most of its elements.

Hello. If I understand what you mean by 'ToolTip', then try the code below. It
is making use of the title attribute for the tags. If your button is an image
and you have an href around it, then you could also use the alt attribute of
the img tag. <button title='Help Text'>Button</button> <input type='submit'
title='Help Text' value='Submit' /> <input type='button' value='Button'
title='Help Text' /> <a href='yourLink.cfm' ><img src='pathToImg.jpg'
alt='Descriptive Text' /></a>
