Have you actually read what Rajeshwar wrote?

He tolds you to use Column<?, SafeHtml> but your posted code contains TextColumn. Change it to Column<Contact, SafeHtml>, use a SafeHtmlCell for that column and then implement getValue().

Please find the sample code.....

private Column< Contact , SafeHtml> column;

 column = new Column< Contact  , SafeHtml>(new SafeHtmlCell()) {

@Override
public SafeHtml getValue( Contact   contact ) {

return getColumnToolTip("column text",     "tooltip text");
}
};




----------------------

private SafeHtml getColumnToolTip(String columnText, StringBuilder toolTipText) {

String htmlConstant = "<html>" + "<head><style>" + "A.tip { TEXT-DECORATION: none; color:#1776B3}" + "A.tip:hover  {CURSOR:default;}" + "A.tip span   {DISPLAY:none}" + "A.tip span p {background:#d30300;color:#fff;font-weight:500;border-radius:5px;padding:5px;font-size:12px}" + "A.tip:hover span {border:1px solid #e6e3e5;DISPLAY: block;Z-INDEX: 1000; PADDING: 0px 10px 0px 10px;" + "POSITION:absolute;float:left;background:#ffffd1;   TEXT-DECORATION: none}" + "</style></head>" + "<body>" + "<a href=\"#\" class=\"tip\">" + "(" + columnText + ")" + "<span>" + toolTipText + "</span></a>" + "</body>" + "</html>";
return new SafeHtmlBuilder().appendHtmlConstant(htmlConstant).toSafeHtml();

}

The contact instance in getValue() is your row value. So when you make the generated SafeHtml dependent on the contact you have a different tooltip for each row (= contact) in that column. If you want to show a tooltip in every column you have to do this in every Column.getValue().

Hi,

i've had the same problem, many thanks to Jens and Rajeshwar for the
solution!

I've extended Column and TextColumn:

public abstract class TooltipColumn<T, C> extends Column<T, C>{
private final Cell<C> cell;

public TooltipColumn(Cell<C> cell) {
super(cell);
this.cell = cell;
}

public abstract SafeHtml getTooltipValue(T object);

@Override
public void render(Context context, T object, SafeHtmlBuilder sb) {
SafeHtmlBuilder mysb = new SafeHtmlBuilder();

cell.render(context, getValue(object), mysb);
mysb.appendHtmlConstant("<span>");
mysb.append(getTooltipValue(object));
mysb.appendHtmlConstant("</span>");
sb.append(mysb.toSafeHtml());
}
}

public abstract class TooltipTextColumn<T> extends TooltipColumn<T,
String> {

/**
* Construct a new TextColumn.
*/
public TooltipTextColumn() {
super(new TextCell());
}

}

CSS:
.CssCellTableCell span {
display:none
}

.CssCellTableCell:hover span {
border:1px solid #e6e3e5;
DISPLAY: block;
Z-INDEX: 1000;
PADDING: 0px 10px 0px 10px;
POSITION:absolute;
float:left;
background:#ffffd1;
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}

Add a Column:

TooltipTextColumn<Todos> aTextColumn = new
TooltipTextColumn<Todos>() {

@Override
public String getValue(Todos object) {
return object.getText();
}

@Override
public SafeHtml getTooltipValue(Todos object) {
return new
SafeHtmlBuilder().appendEscaped(object.getText()).toSafeHtml();
}
};

cellTable.addColumn(aTextColumn, "Text");
