Any one has an Idea of How to display a text message when the mouse is over a subfoot row

Thanks in advance.

You can use the technique similar to described in the article "How to Add Pop-Up Information to Your WebFOCUS Reports". Just go to the main Focal Point (or IBI) site, and type "Pop-Up Information" within the search input box. You should have link to the article, as the first item on the list.

Hope this helps

Here is as close as i can get:
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM SEATS WEIGHT BY COUNTRY BY MODEL
ON COUNTRY SUBFOOT
"SUBFOOT [ST.SEATS"
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=TITLE,COLUMN=SEATS,
DRILLMENUITEM='here is some text',URL=#,$
TYPE=SUBFOOT,ITEM=1,COLOR=RED,URL=#(title=ladeda) ,$
END
---
what we want is the TITLE attribute of a URL link . And CSS tells me that they can't do it.
So i've asked for a 'NewFeatureRequest'.
In the meantime, the best i can comeup with is an
empty link (url=#) that has a text display , but its only when you click on it.
In the example above, i've used a column header for this type of link, you can use anything you put in a subfoot, using the ITEM= reference.
I want the same thing you do. I want to be able to give field DEFINTIONS with a mouseover, but this workaround works for me. hope it helps you.

ps. hey kj, there's a cool article right here on Focal Point, by Dan Grady, on how to add popups to your reports....looks right on point!

Another interesting approach:


TABLE FILE CAR
HEADING
"Move mouse pointer over subfoot text to test"
" "
SUM SALES
BY COUNTRY
BY CAR
ON COUNTRY RECAP
MYSUBFOOT/A100 = ' ' title="Total country ' | COUNTRY | ' are ' |
FTOA(SALES, '(D9)', 'A12') |
' dollars">TOTAL' ;
ON COUNTRY SUBHEAD
" "
ON COUNTRY SUBFOOT
" ON TABLE HOLD FORMAT HTMTABLE
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
TYPE=REPORT, GRID=OFF, $
TYPE=SUBFOOT, HEADALIGN=BODY, JUSTIFY=RIGHT, BACKCOLOR=WHEAT, $
TYPE=SUBFOOT, ITEM=1, COLSPAN=2, $
END
-RUN

-HTMLFORM BEGIN

!IBI.FIL.HOLD;
-HTMLFORM END

Hi

I have a requirement like this.
when ever we take the Mouse over a SUBFOOT, it should open a Drop down menu,in which, each item in the menu would be a URL.
