Where's this at? In my 0.21-fixes (granted, and old rev of it), I
checked on the Program Listings page and when I hovered over the icon or
the channel number/callsign, the popup showed "Details for: WKMG-DT".

On the Upcoming Recordings, Recording Schedules, and Recorded Programs
pages, there is no channel icon in -fixes (I think one was added to
trunk (at least one of those pages), but I don't imagine it was added to
a later rev of -fixes).

Hey Mike,

The icons are the main MythWeb icons (tv, music, video, weather,
settings, etc) at the very top of the page, immediately to the right
of the MythWeb logo (div id="sections"). Hovering over them on my
0.21-fixes installation blanks the help text field (where the
time/date is usually displayed as I understand things).

Looking at the page source, it seems that hovering over an icon should
trigger something like:

onmouseover="return help_text('TV functions, including recorded programmes.')"

but this never seems to happen - it blanks the field instead. I've
tried changing language from English_GB to English, with no success

Not sure if this has ever worked for me, but I thought I'd look into
it whilst it was in my head.

Cheers,
Nick

I've looked with Firebug and had a go at editing the source to see if
I could get it to work, but no success. I can see with the HTML
inspector within Firebug that the value of <div id="help_text"
style="display: none;"> is being set to the correct text to display -
the issue is that is just isn't being displayed. I've looked at
http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/4755 (patch committed 13 months ago)
but am still at a loss as to why it isn't working.

I'm late getting in on this one, but a few things I've found: I'm
running fixes 20500. As for the original issue mentioned, I also get
no help text from the main icons in mythweb, and it just hides the
date/time...never noticed that before. Other things like popups work
fine. I get the same behavior in all browsers.

The javascript help_text function is supposed to set the test in the
help_text div, un-hide the div tag, and then hide the date/time div
tag (help_text_default). From what I see in firebug, the help_text
div ends up with the correct text but a style of "style: display:
none" when you mouse over it, so somethings definitely wrong with
it...I haven't figured out what yet. That functionality doesn't
involve any ajax or anything.

Also...just to avoid confusion...the json requirement in php only
applies to trunk...the fixes version doesn't use any of the json_*
functions in php.

By the way...I tried IE8 from my Windows thinkpad. Other than the
main icon mouseover help, things seem to work, but I could only get
the popups with things like program information using compatibility
mode. From what I've seen however, virtually _everything_ requires
compatibility mode in that piece of crap.

Tom
