Visio Hyperlink title

J

Jeff Kirk

I am trying to output a Visio drawing as a web page using all the bells and
whistles turned on. The page consists of visio shapes for an HP switch with
basic box shapes covering the individual ports that are hyperlinked to MRTG
pages hosted on another server. All is working just fine except when I hover
over the hyperlinks, it does not display the port description as defined in
the hyperlink description setting. The information displayed when hovering
over any hyperlink is "Ctrl + Click to view details. Click to follow
hyperlink." I played around with the XML, JS, and HTML code Visio produced
and noticed that on the hyperlinks in question the title and origtitle href
options are empty. As a test I took one entry in the vml_1.htm and manually
entered the information I wanted in the title option of the hyperlink,
reloaded the page, hovered over the link and viola.

The question is how can I have Visio populate the title portion of the
hyperlink when saving the pages as a webpage? I have over 500 ethernet ports
to work with and would rather not have to manually code the information. The
description in the Hyperlink definition does not work. Thanks...

Jeff
