HoverPanel¶

HoverPanel is the base hover popup used throughout this library's help/tooltip family — HoverLabel, HoverPicture, and (through HoverPicture) HoverHelp all attach one of these panels to their trigger element via the AJAX Control Toolkit's HoverMenuExtender. It renders arbitrary, unencoded content text in an always-hidden, high-Z-INDEX panel that the toolkit reveals on hover. (BR-AJAX-014, BR-AJAX-015)

Purpose¶

Builds a styled popup panel and wires a HoverMenuExtender so it appears when the caller-supplied TargetControlId is hovered. (BR-AJAX-014)
Renders ContentText directly into the panel's content cell without HTML encoding, allowing callers to embed markup in help/tooltip content. (BR-AJAX-015)
Renders nothing at all when there is no content to show, avoiding empty popups. (BR-AJAX-016)

Context¶

Namespace: SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.V2.AJAX
Assembly/package: SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.AJAX.Infragistics111 (packaged in SAIF.BOF.Presentation.Web.Infragistics111)
Base class: SAIFAJAXControlAncestor

Public members¶

Member	Signature	Purpose
`ContentText`	`Property ContentText As String`	Raw markup/text rendered unencoded into the panel; empty suppresses all rendering (BR-AJAX-015, BR-AJAX-016)
`TargetControlId`	`Property TargetControlId As String`	ID of the element that triggers this panel via the toolkit's `HoverMenuExtender`
`PopupPosition`	`Property PopupPosition As AjaxControlToolkit.HoverMenuPopupPosition` (default `Bottom`)	Where the popup appears relative to the trigger
`PanelWidth`	`Property PanelWidth As Unit` (default `300`)	Fixed width of the popup panel

Inherited public members¶

Members in this section are inherited from SAIFAJAXControlAncestor in SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.AJAX.Infragistics111. They are available on this type through inheritance.

Member	Signature	Purpose	Origin
`RootObject`	`ReadOnly Property RootObject As Object`	The hosting page's `Model` property value	`SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.AJAX.Infragistics111` — `SAIFAJAXControlAncestor`
`IsFirefox`	`ReadOnly Property IsFirefox As Boolean`	Browser-capability test for the current request	`SAIF.Presentation.Web.Controls.AJAX.Infragistics111` — `SAIFAJAXControlAncestor`

Behavioral notes¶

The rendered popup uses Display: None plus Z-INDEX: 99999999, so it is always the topmost element on the page whenever the toolkit reveals it. (BR-AJAX-014)
Because ContentText is assigned to TableCell.Text directly rather than HTML-encoded, callers must ensure the text is trusted or pre-encoded; untrusted content is a cross-site-scripting exposure. (BR-AJAX-015)

Constraints and usage notes¶

Requires the AJAX Control Toolkit (AjaxControlToolkit.dll) at runtime for HoverMenuExtender/HoverMenuPopupPosition.
TargetControlId must reference a real control ID on the same page; the toolkit extender is otherwise inert.
