I am running menu version 5.790 and tooltips.js file version 2.8 - October 11 2007
I have had the following line of code in my menu data file for a long time. I just noticed that it no longer works. The problem has to do with the escape characters in the code.
aI("text=Tip 1;offbgcolor=yellow;offcolor=black;tooltip=<b>Forming A New Team?<br>Need Help Or Information?<br><br>Look Under The \"State Information Menu!\"<br>Click On \"Request New Team Info.\";");
The above line will not be displayed when you mouseover. If I removed the escape characters and the double quotes then it will work.
Try this. Normally you can use quote marks, but I think the \ are causing the problem, so with them you need to use the code for the quotes. At least that seems to be what's happening
aI("text=Tip 1;offbgcolor=yellow;offcolor=black;tooltip=<b>Forming A New Team?<br>Need Help Or Information?<br><br>Look Under The \"State Information Menu!\"<br>Click On \"Request New Team Info.\";");
Thanks, Ruth, but the code that I have been using has been place for over a year. All of a sudden it does not work. I do not think that the "\" is the problem. The escape character is a "\". I thin there something wrong with the latest release code. What I am saying is why all of a sudden this no longer works?????
Those are questions you have to ask Milonic. Neither John nor I know anything about the programming itself and what might cause something like that to have worked before and now no longer work. I can only think that some change in the menu programming or in the tooltip module is what caused it.
