"Ghost" help balloons when using ClientValidator

I have written a custom Validator, that does both server- and client-side validation of an input field. For some reason, it is causing "ghost" tooltip balloons to pop up for the fields that use the validator. In other words, when you tab into the field that uses the Validator, an empty balloon appears pointing to that field. This is the same balloon that would contain any help text (i.e. the contents of the ShortDesc property). But, the ShortDesc property is empty for these fields.
It appears to be related to the use of client-side validation. If I simply remove the ClientValidator class from the "implements" clause in the Java class that I wrote, these empty balloons go away (and, of course, I no longer get client-side validation). So, it is something related to the client-side implementation. I can't seem to figure out what piece is causing the empty balloons, though! I've tried commenting out all of the JavaScript I generate and send to the client, or just returning 'null', but that doesn't seem to work. Only removing the ClientValidator from the implements clause makes the balloons disappear.
EDIT: After more testing, it appears that this may be only an issue with MSIE7. These empty balloons do not appear in Chrome v17, or FireFox v9.
I'm hoping someone has some suggestions I can try, as these are really annoying from a UI standpoint (and our users are on MSIE7, of course!).
Thanks,
Karl

Hi,
did you try with IE8 or a later version of IE? If it shows there then it would be good to have a test case. Note that for you to get immediate help the recommendation is to go through customer support. If I look at the test case (which would be an option) then if there is a bug to file, it wont be published for external viewers.

  • Help:  Error when using LSMW (Recording Object Type)

    Dear all,
       I encountered an error when using "Batch Input Recording" way in LSMW,which is as follows:
    I have recorded the transaction MM01 and the source structure and data mapping.When dealing
    with "Specify Files",the error comes out with message
    --> "File Name 'Converted Data':Max.45 Characters:Remaining saved". 
    and the subsequent steps cannot be maintained due to the error.

    Alex,
    The name of file for Converted data is a system generated combination of your Project subproject and object followed by lsmw.conv  as   Project_Subproject_Object.lsmw.conv
    System has set a limit of a maximum of 45 characters. It the file name exceeds 45 characters, the system will throw the error.
    Just rename the file such that it is with in the 45 charcter limit....you will be fine
    Hope this helps

  • What's This Help crashing when using RoboHelp's HtmlHelp API

    I followed all the instructions described in the RoboHelp
    developer help file. The correct initialisation at the InitInstance
    of the application
    is called using the CSHInitialize(szHelpPath, TRUE). Then, I
    registered the dialog for the "What's This?" help, using the
    SHRegisterDialog(...) API. When I right click the mouse on any
    control in the dialog I always end up with a crash reporting the
    following error:
    "The exception unknown software exception (0x0000005) occurred
    in the application at location 0x4b78d471".
    When we debugged the problem we got the following message in
    the debugger which indicates that the crash is happining in the
    hhctrl.ocx library:
    "Unhandled exception at 0x4b78d471 (hhctrl.ocx) in hoblinkl.exe;
    0x0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000"
    In the meantime another image illustrates the call stack
    right before the crash (message not included).
    Note that for this application, we have the resouces loaded
    from a resource DLL. However, we were told that the help file was
    generated using these resource DLLs. We used this dialog as a
    testing platform because it is one of the simplest dialogs without
    the complexities of property pages etc., which do load certain
    dialog resources dynamically.
    However, to further test the problem, we implemented the
    context sensitive help on a more complex dialog using the standard
    HtmlHelp Api, where we are passing an array containing the mappings
    between the IDs and the Help topics (for now the mapping is fixed
    to one topic ID for simplicity) and I managed to make the context
    sensitive help work (not through the What's this menu but rather
    through the '?' button at the top right corner of the dialog.) The
    proper context help topic is displayed according to the mapped ID.
    Has anybody faced this problem and is there a solution for
    it? ;

    Unfortunately the update did not help. Using the field-level
    help in the dialog always ends up with a crash reporting the above
    error.

  • Need help with internal HD memory problems when using Premiere Pro?

    When using PP I keep loosing memory on my HD.
    Now this seems strange to me since I have every thing, all my video and audio files on external HDs.
    Each time I time I make a new project I end up with less space on my internal HD.
    Information related to these projects is somehow remaining on my internal HD.
    Anyone got any ideas about what I might be doing wrong?
    Dimitrije

    Premiere will slowly compile various files to help the project along, and the default place is usually your internal hard drive. Make sure your scratch disks are pointed to an external hard drive if that is what you want, also, make sure the Media Cache Files are being created on your external as well (and not the default location which is on your local drive).
    Premiere Preferences > Media
    Media Cache Files & Media Cache Database should be changed to an external disk if you don't want them created on your local disk. There are many tutorials and explanations about all of these aspects of Premiere on these forums and from other sources. Hope that helps!
