Hi,
Do you have any ideas about the reasons why tooltips show on Windows XP, but not on Windows 2K advance server?
Thanks
ArguoWhich tooltips? Are we talking web design or something else
Same question. And why is this significant to you?I would imagine he's referring to Windows XP's image toolbar in IE6 (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews/mw_ie6_04.gif">http://www.winsupersite.com/images/revi ... ie6_04.gif</a><!-- m -->). It can be turned off like this:<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />Oh, that. OK- my humble (yea. right) opinion: Don't do that. This is an occasion where the beleif of a few people on this thread, "don't mess with the viewer's browser" should be accounted for...Originally posted by omega
Oh, that. OK- my humble (yea. right) opinion: Don't do that. This is an occasion where the beleif of a few people on this thread, "don't mess with the viewer's browser" should be accounted for... Of course, that's generally correct, but we aren't aware of this is an intranet or Internet site thus it might be a valid use of something like this. Alternatively, however, the original poster could switch to a real browser (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/">http://www.mozilla.org/products/firefox/</a><!-- m -->) and won't have to deal with the annoying features, quirkyness, or anything else associated with IE.intranet..? like on your c:/ drive..? why would you care about that?Originally posted by omega
intranet..? like on your c:/ drive..? why would you care about that? As in an internal network running an intranet application. Why would you are about it? Consider the people running this intranet application do not want the toolbar there for whatever reason; it would then make sense to do something like this.intranet could refer to a local web site for a business, in which case the webmaster would know what all the computers have as far as web browsers, thus doesn't need to worry about being as cross browser, and won't bother people by controlling their browserah, ok. wasn't familiar with the idea of that.Sorry guys. I made you confused.
I am talking about web design.
I have two machines, Windows XP and Windows 2K Advanced Server. The funny thing happened when I opened the same web page on IE6 on both. The tooltips show correctly on XP, but no tooltips show W2K Server at all.
I am designing a web page including tooltips. I wonder if tooltips would work properly when users open the page on Win9x, or others.
Do you have any ideas?
ArguoAre you using title attribute to show tooltips or some script???No. I just use popup text boxes.
ArguoWhat do you mean "popup text boxes"?? Got a link?It's a general text content that shows detailed information.
ArguoWhat are you using to display the text? Maybe a JS Script? The alt attribute? The title attribute?Please don't tell me your using JS alerts...
