Hi all, I would like a popup to appear at the mouse position upon dragging the mouse over an image tag. I've tried several ways of doing this, but can't quite get it. I have tried Trinidad and Tomahawk popup components. Because of the large amount of popups i'll have, I need to have one dynamic popup that I can manipulate and move around. If I'm not mistaken the popup components from Trinidad and Tomahawk can only be bound to one page element, so that won't work for me.
So I've made my own javascript function to create the popup. This almost works, but the only way I know how to get the mouse position is to get the clientX and clientY from the event passed into the javascript function. Trinidad is sending a null event. The popup appears in the upper left hand corner and I can't get any mouse position info. I solved this by adding a onLoad function through dojo that attaches the mouseover event to all the elements that need it. If I attach the mouseover listener at this point, the event object passed in is not null and I can get the mouse coordinates. This solution fails though when I use PPR to re-render any of the elements I altered with the onLoad function. They lose their onmouseover event and I can't re-attach it. I am running out of ideas! Can anyone help? -Dan
