How to add Tooltip to jqgrid

Question

I am using jqgrid to display data present in server how do i show description of data on mouse hover tool tip.

which is the best way to show tool tip on jqgrid?

Answer 1

  var setTooltipsOnColumnHeader = function (grid, iColumn, text){
      var thd = jQuery("thead:first", grid[0].grid.hDiv)[0];  
      jQuery("tr.ui-jqgrid-labels th:eq(" + iColumn + ")", thd).attr("title", text);
     };


and just set tooltip on header column

setTooltipsOnColumnHeader ($("#empgrid"), 4, "Invoice No");
setTooltipsOnColumnHeader ("GRID NAME", "COLUMN" , "TOOLTIP TEXT");
