Hey Virendra Kharkar,

Yes you can pop-up a message or alert on hover mouse on a field.

You need to write an onLoad client script for this,

function onLoad() {
//Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below

var control=g_form.getControl('field name');
jslog('control = ' + control);
control.onmouseover=myOnhover;

function myOnhover() {
alert(getMessage('I hovered'));
}
}

Thanks

Hi,

Add the message in Tooltip field of the variable.So that on hover of field name message is displayed.

This works on portal also.

Thanks.
