Guys,
Finally managed to display the tooltip generated by JFreeChart in the wicket
page by following these
instructions<http://markmail.org/message/r36cvdt2o3c4pki6#query:wicket%20jfreechart%20tooltips+page:1+mid:xqpnjdsj2lnkoinq+state:results>
.
Had only an example markup been given in that post, it would have saved lots
of frustrating hours I spent. :-(
For anyone looking forward for showing the tooltips in a chart generated by
JFreeChart, here is the markup you might need.
<code>
<img wicket:id="chart" usemap="#tooltip"></img>
</code>
For the java part, use this
code<http://markmail.org/message/r36cvdt2o3c4pki6#query:wicket%20jfreechart%20tooltips+page:1+mid:xqpnjdsj2lnkoinq+state:results>
.
Your output should look something like this..
<code>
<img wicket:id="chart" usemap="#tooltip" src="blah blah"></img>
<map id="tooltip" name="tooltip">
<area/>
</map>
</code>
NOTE:
- You must use <code> <img wicket:id="chart" usemap="#tooltip"></img>
</code> and not <code> <img wicket:id="chart" usemap="#tooltip"/> </code>
- You must use the "#" symbol before the "usemap" id.
- The image map related html markup is generated by the api provided by
JFreeChart.
