I am currently creating a website, but I am uncertain how to tackle this problem. I am trying to create a display for a DataTable using HTML and C#, that should be sortable, but I would like to do something specific.
I have a list of objects that contains a Name
and a Value
, both are strings. I was wondering whether it is possible to insert multiple values (Name
) under a single cell, but also making it possible to show the Value
while hovering over the name.
Here is an example I made in Excel, where a row contains multiple values. The underlined String should be hoverable and show the Value
as tooltip.
HTML: Both rowspan and tooltip added.
<body>
<table style="width:100%">
<tr>
<th>Name</th>
<td>Jill</td>
<td>Jill</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th rowspan="3">Phone</th>
<td class="tooltip">555-1234 <span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span></td>
<td>555-1234</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="tooltip">555-1234 <span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="tooltip">555-1234 <span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<th>Phone</th>
<td>555-1234</td>
<td>555-1234</td>
</tr>
</table>
<div class="tooltip">Hover over me
<span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span>
</div>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
CSS:
table, th, td {
border:1px solid black;
}
.tooltip .tooltiptext {
visibility: hidden;
width: 120px;
background-color: black;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
border-radius: 6px;
padding: 5px 0;
/* Position the tooltip */
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
}
.tooltip:hover .tooltiptext {
visibility: visible;
}
