Retrieving tooltiptext values from an xml file

[Ram]

Hi All,

I am working with an asp.net application. My client wants the
tooltiptext for the controls to be displayed from an xml file. Creating
an Xml file is not a problem.

How can I proceed further to retrieve the values from the Xml file
and assign them to the tooltiptext property of the web controls ?

Please give me a solution to accomplish this task with minimum code.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

You can set the ID of each control and map those to the tooltips in
your xml file.

eg:
<tooltips>
<tooltip elementID="Butt on1">Tooltip for button one</tooltip>
....
....
</tooltips>



foreach(WebCont rol c in Page.Controls)
{
c.ToolTip=toolt ipXmlDoc.Select SingleNode("/tooltips/tooltip[@elementID='"+c .ID+"']").InnerTex t;
}

Note: The Page.Controls will only return the child controls of the
page.
