Custom field tooltip

[Sanu Soman]

Hi All,

I'm trying to add some help text for a custom field in create screen, which is mentioned in the link,

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Creating+Help+for+a+Custom+Field

I used below script and added to description of the "Application Name" custom field, but not getting anything in create screen.

<script type="text/javascript">
function showHelp() {
var helpDiv = AJS.$("Application Name");
if (helpDiv.length == 1) {
helpDiv = helpDiv[0];
if (helpDiv.style.display == 'none')

{ helpDiv.style.display = ''; }

else

{ helpDiv.style.display='none'; }

}
}
</script>

<a href="#" title="Application Name" onclick="showHelp(); return false;"><img src="/images/icons/ico_help.png"/></a>
<div id="Application Name" style="display:none">
Application Name - help text
</div>

Could you please suggest a solution.

thanks,

Sanu P Soman

try by adding javascript inside of this bind event

JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {
//add your code here
});

Tried,

JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e,context) {
<script type="text/javascript">
function showHelp() {
var helpDiv = AJS.$("Application Name");
if (helpDiv.length == 1) {
helpDiv = helpDiv[0];
if (helpDiv.style.display == 'none') {
helpDiv.style.display = '';
} else {
helpDiv.style.display='none';
}
}
}
</script>
<a href="#" title="Application Name" onclick="showHelp(); return false;"><img src="/images/icons/ico_help.png"/></a>
<div id="Application Name" style="display:none">
Application Name - help text
</div>
});

But getting,

	var helpDiv = AJS.$("Application Name");
	if (helpDiv.length == 1) {
		helpDiv = helpDiv[0];
