I'm having problems attempting to use <rich:toolTip> within a <rich:treeNode>. My test page layout is:
<h:form id="testForm">
<h:outputText id="testText" value="Text Out Of Tree Node" />
<rich:toolTip id = "toolTip1" followMouse="true" mode = "ajax" for="testText" direction="top-right" horizontalOffset="5" verticalOffset="5" layout="block" >
<f:facet name="defaultContent">
<f:verbatim>Loading...</f:verbatim>
</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="Loaded"/>
</rich:toolTip>
<rich:tree id="testTree"
switchType="ajax" value="#{CustomerInventoryBean.testRoot}"
var="item" >
<rich:treeNode id = "btnNode">
<h:outputText id="testTreeText" value="Text In Tree Node" />
<rich:toolTip id = "toolTip2" followMouse="true" mode = "ajax" for="testTreeText" direction="top-right" horizontalOffset="5" verticalOffset="5" layout="block" >
<f:facet name="defaultContent">
<f:verbatim>Loading...</f:verbatim>
</f:facet>
<h:outputText value="Loaded"/>
</rich:toolTip>
</rich:treeNode>
</rich:tree>
</h:form>
CustomerInventoryBean.getTestRoot() returns a TreeNodeImpl<String> with one TreeNodeImpl<String> child.
When I mouseover the first outputText (testText) the tooltip behaves as I would expect -- it appears first with the defaultContent facet displayed ('Loading...') and then once the ajax call returns the tooltip changes to show the tooltip content ('Loaded').
However, when I mouseover the outputText in the tree (testTreeText), it displays the tooltip with the defaultContent facet correctly, but when the ajax call returns the tooltip disappears entirely and I log a javascript error:
Error: this.toolTip is null
Source File: http://localhost:8080/portal/a4j/g/3_3_3.Finalorg/richfaces/renderkit/html/scripts/tooltip.js.jsf
Line: 60
If I remove ' mode = "ajax" ' from the toolTip tag the tooltip works as expected by displaying the tooltip ('Loaded') on both outputTexts. Unfortunately, this is not a feasible solution for the functionality I need.
I have tried several permutations of how to place the toolTip tag within the treeNode without any luck in avoiding this error. Am I missing something?
