EncodeTip in Image Map problem with acute accent characters

[User (Legacy)]

The mouse tip of my chart contains acute accent ('), which generates 

javascript errors.This is the source of the page: 

onmouseover="popupon('mine's tooltip',event)";

The same problem with mouse tips of the titles.

I tried to write: "chart.ImgMap = ImgMap.MouseTip | ImgMap.EncodeTip" 

but it doesn't solve the problem.

Is there a way to escape this.

Thank you.

Sorry, not "acute accent" but a "single quotation" mark

We have fixed this issue (not properly encoding single quotes when using 

MouseTip|EncodeTip). Any build marked 1816 or later should include this fix. 

You can contact our support dept if you need to download a hotfix before our 

next service pack is available.

Note that we will encode strings that are "stored" inside the chart, e.g. 

with the fixed version we will properly encode this

chart1.ImgMap = ImgMap.EncodeTip | ImgMap.MouseTip;

chart1.TipMask = "%l %v";

chart1.Legend[0] = "Juan's";

But we will not encode "verbatim" characters in your mask, e.g. we will NOT 

encode the quote in this scenario

chart1.ImgMap = ImgMap.EncodeTip | ImgMap.MouseTip;

chart1.TipMask = "Last year's value %v";

Also Note that if you are using TitleTip to show tooltips and you are only 

targeting IE you can use ImgMap.MouseTip, this approach uses the TITLE 

attribute in an AREA tag (I have not tested this on FireFox or newer Mozilla 

versions but old Netscape versions did not support it). In this case you do 

not have to implement popupon-popupoff functions.
