Hey there,
Internet Explorer and Fire Fox seem to use different attributes of an image tag to render the tooltip text. Fire Fox uses the 'alt text' as a place holder for unavailable images and the 'title' tag to render the tooltip. Whereas IE seems to use the 'alt text' for both.
Our question is whether or not the RadEditor has a way of editing the 'title' attribute (for FF) through the UI?
Regards,
Gav.

Hi Gav,
RadEditor does not offer UI for setting or modifying the title attribute of the inserted images, but this could be easy implemented by following the instructions below:
1) Register the external dialog files of RadEditor: Customize Built-in Dialogs.
2) Open the SetImageProperties.ascx file and add a new title textbox in the dialog:
3) Get a reference to the textbox and assign its value to the resultImage object inside the getModifiedImage function

2) Open the SetImageProperties.ascx file and add a new title textbox in the dialog:
<
tr
class

"textAttributes"

<
td
class
=
"reLabelCell"
style
=
"width: 120px;"
>
<
label
class
=
"reDialogLabel"
for
=
"ImageLongDesc"
>
<
span
style
=
"text-align: right;"
>
Title
</
span
>
</
label
>
</
td
>
<
td
class
=
"reControlCell"
>
<
input
type
=
"text"
id
=
"titleBox"
style
=
"width: 165px;"
/>
</
td
>
</
tr
>
3) Get a reference to the textbox and assign its value to the resultImage object inside the getModifiedImage function
getModifiedImage: function () {...
this._setClass(resultImage, this._imageCssClassList);
resultImage.setAttribute("title", $get('titleBox').value);
return resultImage;
},
4. Save the file.
For your convenience I have attached the modified SetImageProperties.ascx file.

Hi,
I tried the solution explained here. It works fine in the development environment but it doesn't work anymore when the website is precompiled (probably because there is no placeholder files for the .ascx files?).
Is there a solution ?
By the way... for what reason teh attribute title is not part of the standard (there is alt and longdesc but not title...)???
Best regards,
Didier

Hi Didier,
Before precompiling the web site, you should select the ascx dialog file, open the Properties Pane of Visual Studio and select Copy Always option of the Copy to Output Directory property. Here you can find the PITS Issue: Public URL.
As to your second question: We decided to include the title field in the Set Image Properties dialog for the Q2 2011 release of RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX.

So I'll wait until the Q2 2011 is released as to use the "standard" title will be cleanest way to do the job. Thanks a lot for these good news :-)!
