            Hello. I just started using datatables and I have to say it's one of the best (if not the best) apps ever used by me.
I am using Tooltipster (http://iamceege.github.io/tooltipster/) for my tooltips on hover. Now how do I integrate these in my datatable? I need to have tooltips with information on certain columns. The data source is a json object array.
This is my js
$('#tblCurrentEnrollments').dataTable({
                "bAutoWidth": false, // Disable the auto width calculation
                "lengthMenu": [[5, 10, 25, 50, -1], [5, 10, 25, 50, "All"]],
                "aaData": currentEnrollments,
                "aoColumns": [
                    {
                        "mDataProp": "Course.course_title",
                        "sWidth": "30%"
                    },
                    {
                        "mDataProp": "_Class.class_title",
                        "sWidth": "30%"
                    },
                    {
                        "mDataProp": "EnrollmentResults.enrollment_results_title",
                        "sWidth": "20%"
                    },
                    {
                        "mDataProp": "ecommerce_time",
                        "sWidth": "20%"
                    }
                ]
            });
How do I get a Tooltip on the first column? Basically I need to add a div tag to the first column.
Thanks.

Ok I got it to work but it's not working on the next page.
$('#tblCurrentEnrollments').dataTable({
"bAutoWidth": false, // Disable the auto width calculation
"lengthMenu": [[5, 10, 25, 50, -1], [5, 10, 25, 50, "All"]],
"aaData": currentEnrollments,
"aoColumns": [
{
"mDataProp": "Course.course_title",
"sWidth": "30%",
"mRender": function (data, type, full) {
tipDesc = "Test";
tipDesc += "
Click this link
";
tipDesc += "
"
What can I do to make it work on all pages?
Thanks.
