Hi all,

I have a gridview which display customer's information that has lots of columns that doesn't fit well into a screen and when the users scroll to the right, they cannot tell which row belong to which customer so I'm wondering if I can use HoverExtender to display the customer (which is the first column in the table and when the users scroll to the right, the first column is not visible) when the users move the mouse over a row.

I've been searching all over the place for this but all I can see are examples of HoverMenuExtender that being added to the right or to the left of the gridview to allow Add, Edit, etc. which is very helpful in some of my web pages but I cannot find anything like I mentioned above.  I wonder if the solution that I'm looking for is not available.

I do see other examples to freeze the first column to keep it staying in place while scrolling but unfortunately, the gridview that I have does not allow me to provide such a feature.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi Qbui66,

Currently, no property or function is designed for your purpose.   So you shall move the popped up Panel manually by using javascript. How to do this, you shall reference to the FAQ.  http://forums.asp.net/t/992919.aspx    $common.getLocation(your panel);  

Best regards,

Thanks for your suggestion.  I finally come up to another solution, I'm going to use Master/Detail method to display the records.  The first page which is the Master page will have important columns, and then the details page will display all of the fields of that record.
