Span tag used to display the tooltip in Cognos 10.2.2, dispalys only 515 charact

[xyz]

Hi Gurus,

We have used a span tag in the congos 10.2.2 report studio, model is relational, where we wanted to display some comments for a particular column when we do mouse hover. The characters present in the comments column are about 10,000 approximately. But when we tried to display the same column using the span tag then the total characters are not getting displayed, when we do mouse hover on the column, only around 515 characters are getting displayed in IE 11 browser. But the same report when viewed in Mozilla firefox all the comments are display.

Can someone please suggest, what could be an alternate to use other than a span tag for IE11 browser?

Your help would be much appreicated

Thanks & Regards,
XYZ

Are you using a title tag on the span? Not sure if IE11 does, but some earlier versions of IE limited title tags to 512 characters.

Honestly, and this is just my opinion, I think 10k characters being shown on a hover is a bit much. I would think of something a bit different - maybe use a div and some javascript to show and hide it with a "+/-" button.
