Title: How to process a mouse click on the HTML report cell with Javascript? (8.3)
Post by: eq85 on 10 Sep 2009 07:11:42 PM
Hello,

We would like to add the following functionality to a standard report in HTML format:
When users click on the certain column (cell), a small popup window appears with some additional information related to the selected row.

We will need to attach a custom onclick event to the table (or possible to every cell in this particular column?).
We also will need to know at least the row number, or better the selected cell content.
Is it possible to read a Cognos table cell content with Javascript?

Is it possible to achieve all this?

Thank you very much.

I have seen this done before. Not sure how but we had a SDK/javascript expert working with us at the time.
Can't offer the solution but you certainly can do it..
