I've created a DataTable which includes a column of 4-character identifiers for certain meteorological data collection stations. I have a database which includes a record for each individual station. For example, in my database station KPHL has name: "Philadelphia", state: "PA", country: "US", latitude: 39.87, longitude: -75.23, elevation: 18.
I would like for the user to be able to hover over a specific hyperlinked station ID in the table, which would then display the relevant information from the database in the tooltip window. So if a user hovers over the blue "KPHL" in my table, they see the following information in a tooltip window:
Station Name: PHILADELPHIA
State: PA
Country: US
Latitude: 39.87
Longitude: -75.23
Elevation: 18
I'd like to implement AJAX for this. Is there built-in functionality for tooltips in DataTables? Or will I have to use a separate jQuery event?
