How to add ToolTip using Javascript

[Richard M]

I would like to use one ToolTip for multiple buttons.  The ToolTip has custom content which includes text, buttons, checkboxes.  My plan is to create a Javascript function to bring up the ToolTip when the button is clicked on. 

First, I would add the Javascript function to the client click event of my buttons:
Button1.Attributes.Add("OnClick","myFunction()");
Button2.Attributes.Add("OnClick","myFunction()");

Then I need to create a Javascript function (called myFunction) to bring up the tooltip:
function myFunction()
{
     // code goes here
}

How do I attach and bring up a ToolTip in Javascript?

Hello Richard M,

 Straight to your questions:

1) To programmatically show a tooltip you should set ShowEvent="FromCode", reference the tooltip and call its method show()

2) If you want not only to programmatically show but also to create dynamically a tooltip on the client you should use the RadToolTipManager's createToolTip method as shown in the demo below:

I hope that my reply is detailed enough and helpful, let me know how it goes.

Best wishes,
