Is it possible to search for data inside a "tooltip"?

caringi

In my table I have some information in tooltip balloons, using something like this:

<span title='foo'>bar</span>

Is there any possible way to allow the search feature to search not only for the content (bar), but also for the tooltip (foo)?

I would consider using Orthogonal Data for this. For the filter type you would combine the data for that column along with the tool tip text. How specifically you do that depends on the source of the tooltip. Let us know if you have any questions. If you could post a test case with your questions it will make it easier for us to answer.
