Tooltip help with Custom fields

[Zorro67]

Hi guys,

 

i wonder if there are any coding genieii* (is that the correct spelling for the collective plural?)

that could help me with tool tips for custom fields within WHMCS.

 

I don't have many yet, but I'm planning to add 100-150 custom fields in the next week

 

I know there are 90 ways to enter tooltips (add to mysql, etc), but i have taken the easy way out and added them to the English.txt file as

$_LANG["tooltipcompanyname"] = "What is your \'Trading As\' name?";

 

I have the tooltip code entered into the relevant space of each .TPL file

eg in client register.tpl, at the point of the @@@

<tr><td class="fieldarea">{$LANG.clientareacompanyname}</td><td><input type="text" name="companyname" size=30 value="{$clientcompanyname}"> @@@ </td></tr>

 

I have added <a href="#" onmouseover="Tip('{$LANG.tooltipcompanyname}')"><img src="/support/images/clientarea/helpsm2.png" border="0" alt="tooltip"/></a>

 

Works really well. Then i got to custom fields.

 

I believe I can define it as

$_LANG["tooltip<pluscustomlabelname>"] = "Insert relevant text here";

 

but i'm not sure of the coding to lookup a custom string within a {foreach} routine.

<a href="#" onmouseover="Tip('{$LANG.<get the name of the tooltipcustomlabelhere>}')">

 

has anyone got an easy solution?

I resolved this by using wz_tooltip.

Then putting in the individual custom field into each relevant template

This is how we do it with addons, I'm sure you can modify it to work with configurable options:

{if $addon.name eq "Downtime SMS Notification"}<a class="tooltip" href="#" onmouseover="Tip('Message Here', TITLE, 'Title Here')">{$addon.name}</a>

Hope that helps
