Tool tip is not coming when we displayed a graph in JSP

[perumal mani]

Hi All,
i genereated a graph using JFreechart in servlet and sent it back to page using response object. but for the graph the tool tip (Showing the exact value when mouse over the graph) is not coming. its working when i run it as a swing program separetly. i called my servlet in img src tag as below,

<img src = "graph.do />

and servlet returs jfreechart image object using Output Stream as below,

JFreeChart jfreechart = createChart();
BufferedImage bi = jfreechart.createBufferedImage(500,400);
ByteArrayOutputStream bos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
response.setContentType("image/png");
OutputStream stream = null;
stream = response.getOutputStream();
ImageIO.write(bi,"png",bos);
byte[] imageData = bos.toByteArray();
response.setContentLength(imageData.length);
stream.write(imageData);
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);

but when i sent it to page using the above method, the tool tip is not coming for the graph is page. i need to know, how to bring the tool tip for a graph in JSP page. Waiting for Reply.

There is a considerable difference when you run something as a standalone application and as a web application.

So I think comparing the two wont do.
I am unaware of JFreeChart but can you consider using javascript for showing tool tip, because I dont think you will be able to do it from the server.


Hope this helps
