Handler Object
The following code snippet from the Zimlet Handler Object creates the HTML code for the tool tip and writes the HTML to the canvas. The toolTipPoppedUp() zimlet method is called by the zimlet framework:
/**
* This method is called when the tool tip is popped-up.
*
* @param {Object} spanElement the element
* @param {String} contentObjText the content object text
* @param {Hash} matchContent the match content (matchContent[0], matchContent.index, matchContent.input)
* @param {Object} canvas the canvas
*/
com_zimbra_example_customtooltip_HandlerObject.prototype.toolTipPoppedUp =
function(spanElement, contentObjText, matchContent, canvas) {
// generate the HTML
var html = new Array();
var i = 0;
html[i++] = "<table cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 border=0>";
html[i++] = ["<tr valign='center'>", "<td><b>CUSTOM TOOL TIP</b></td>", "</tr>"].join("");
html[i++] = ["<tr valign='center'>", "<td><div style='white-space:nowrap'><b>contentObjText = </b>", contentObjText, "</div>", "</td></tr>"].join("");
html[i++] = ["<tr valign='center'>", "<td><div style='white-space:nowrap'><b>matchContent[0] = </b>", matchContent[0], "</div>", "</td></tr>"].join("");
html[i++] = ["<tr valign='center'>", "<td><div style='white-space:nowrap'><b>matchContent.index = </b>", matchContent.index, "</div>", "</td></tr>"].join("");
html[i++] = ["<tr valign='center'>", "<td><div style='white-space:nowrap'><b>matchContent.input = </b>", matchContent.input, "</div>", "</td></tr>"].join("");
html[i++] = ["</table>"].join("");
// write the HTML to the tool tip canvas
canvas.innerHTML = html.join("");
};
