Bug: KendoTooltip removes the <title> from a page

[Diane]

Not sure if this is the right place for this but I've noticed on my site and the kendo demo page for tooltip that when you hover over a tooltip item the <title> element of the page is cleared and usually, but not always, restored when you mouse out. I assume this is to do with the code that removes the tooltip elements title to prevent the browsers default tooltip.

Hi,

 Do you mean the title attribute? Because the Kendo ToolTip never touches the <title> element of the page. If you mean the title attribute - yes the ToolTip removes it otherwise the browser would display it when the user hovers the element with the mouse. When the tooltip is hidden it is supposed to restore the title attribute of the element. If you have discovered a case when this doesn't happen please let us know how to reproduce the same. It isn't the expected behavior and we would like to fix it.

Kind regards,

Is this issue fixed? Because I can still reproduce it. It happens when I hover over an element with a title attr and then hover over another element with a title attr really fast. So the time between the hover over the 2 elements itsreally small.

 

Thank you

Hello, Vedran,

Could you please let me know if the issue can be observed in this Dojo example and if yes, the steps to reproduce it? We will be happy to investigate once we are able to do so.

Hi Martin,

I can't seem to reproduce the error in the dojo example. I see it is using the latest version of kendo? We are currently on version 2021.2.616. Is it possible the bug will go away if we update our kendo to newer version?

Cheers

Hello, Vedran,

If the behaviour is indeed due to a bug in the version you are using and it has been fixed in a later one, updating your Kendo should resolve the issue.

I mean it clears the inner html of the html title element in the head of the page. You can see this happen on your demo page. I even stated that I assume it is related to the code responsible for preventing the default browser tooltip. Did you read what I wrote? Sorry for being a bit abrasive but when someone takes the time to report a bug it would be nice if you spent 30 whole seconds trying to recreate it rather than assuming I don't know what I am talking about. You can even see this in action without even launching the dev tools by simply looking at the browser tab. It switches from displaying a title to the pages URL because that is the default behavior when no title is specified. Using chrome and ie to test this so far. 

<title>Your page title</title>

Hover an element with a kendoTooltip applied

<title></title>
