If anyone wants to know how to do this here it is:


Client Script:


function onLoad() {


    //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below


      gel('ni.IO:SYS_ID').title="Test to show when mouse is on the variable";


}

I haven't ever had a problem with this, but I might not be understanding what you're asking.   One out-of-box example is the 'Knowledge' field on the incident table.   Hovering over the label shows a hint.


Hi Mark,

This is OOB feature, how can this be achieved for user created fields?

Right-click the field label, select 'Configure -> Label' and add whatever you want to the 'Hint' field.

Are you trying to use hover text in a catalog item instead of a form? If not, I agree with Mark - this looks like it work in my test. What version is it failing in?
