[mapguide-users] Tooltip Issues in Internet Explorer

Are you trying to adjust this in the AJAX viewer, Fusion layouts, or both?
For Fusion layouts, look at the maptip.js widget and its associated
maptip.css style sheet.  For the AJAX viewer, do some searching through the
viewer code in the www directory for tooltip, but I'm unsure of whether this
will be adjustable.  In either case, you would be editing the source files
which makes updating to newer releases a little more complicated.

Attached is a screenshot of my tooltip. Its a custom tooltip with a <table>.
Is there a way to remove the top space and bottom space from the tooltip
box? This seems to be static and is not coming from my table. Here is my
tooltip expression

concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(concat(
concat(concat('<div><table border="1" style="font-family:Times New Roman;
font-size:smaller; border-collapse:collapse; border-style:solid"><tr><td
style="background-color:#C0C0C0">Installation:</td><td
style="background-color:#FFFFFF">',tblFacilities_Installation),'</td></tr><t
r><td
style="background-color:#C0C0C0">Facility Number:</td><td
style="background-color:#FFFFFF">'), Facility_Number ),'</td></tr><tr><td
style="background-color:#C0C0C0">Facility Type:</td><td
style="background-color:#FFFFFF">'), tblFacilities_FacType
),'</td></tr><tr><td style="background-color:#C0C0C0">RPA UID:</td><td
style="background-color:#FFFFFF">'), tblFacilities_RPAUID
),'</td></tr><tr><td style="background-color:#C0C0C0">Primary Use:</td><td
style="background-color:#FFFFFF">'), tblFacilities_Primary_Use
),'</td></tr><tr><td style="background-color:#C0C0C0">Primary Cat.
Code:</td><td style="background-color:#FFFFFF">'),
tblFacilities_Primary_CatCode ),'</td></tr></table></div>')

Thanks for any help.
