I want to add a title to option items in a drop down select box. When i hover on each item, i want to see the tooltip.
The prob is that if the option item value is too long, it is truncated in IE.
Can anyone suggest possible solutions plz ?
I don't want to use frames. I'm ready to settle for javascript functions and css customization if need be.
Also i'm using this dtd in my html template:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
Also,
- adding title in option item won't work in IE
- onmouseover, onhover.. also does not work in IE.
I tried using SPAN, with an overflow hidden, it works only in plain html template.
But in my case, i'm using the loose.dtd, so the <span> does not work.
Please suggest possible solutions cause, i'm not finding any.
Thanks
