How to show GridView in tooptip in asp.net

Hello friends,

Normally what happens, a single or more lines are shown as a tooltip. What I need is to show a gridview as a tooltip. Actually in my project i need to show all the notes associated with a stock in a gridview.

Can anybody help me?

Thanks for sharing your valuable time.

GridView in a tooltip? gringe

Why don't you use a Sql Data Reader to fetch the data, then set the server control's tool tip text to that?

Thanks Cen, Actually each stock# contains 'N' number of notes associated with it. The notes are stored in a seperate table.

I understand that. However, that fact doesn't mean you need to use a GridView to display it.

Thank you again Cen.

As you are working on the web; why not use a dynamic DIV or the equivalent and have a JS function that loads it with the relevant content and moves it to where you want it upon the mouseover event of the control you want to display the tooltip for?

Kindness,

Dan
