----------------------------------------------------------- From: Saravana Message 4 in Discussion Hi, I think currently it is not possible to set the ToolTip for DropdownList control in ASP.NET. I think that it is a limitation of the HTML/DHTML standard. After rendering the server-side code, ASP.NET just transfer the DropDownList control to the specific "<Select>" HTML stream. Unfortunately, the "Title" property is not supported for the "Select" tag (which DropDownList and ListBox render to) in DHTML. I noticed that there is a tooltip property on the DropDownList control. Unfortunately the corresponding documents state the following - Note: The ToolTip property is inherited from the WebControl class and is not applicable to the DropDownList control. This implementation of the ToolTip property does not allow you to set a value and returns String. In a word, if we can make this (a dropdown with ToolTip) work with plain HTML and client side script, we should be able to emit the necessary code from ASP.NET.
