C # Displaying different text on tooltip for browser
Is it possible to change the text that appears on hover in the browser. For example:
I want the tag text to remain the same, but it was possible to change the gray text that appears when you hover over it.
The rationale for this is due to the presence of the site on the clustered server. I want the main tab to stay the same to avoid user confusion, but to help maintain issues showing the server the site is in a pair.
I have my server name in a bag like:
ViewBag.ServerName = System.Environment.MachineName;
Is it something I can follow, can anyone point me in the right direction?

The behavior you are looking for unfortunately cannot be achieved (at least in current browsers rendering HTML). The text shown in the hover tooltip is not directly controlled by the document, but by the browser. For example, Chrome (like all browsers I know of) displays the full tag content <title>
on hover over the tab name.
I guess you could hack a solution by changing title
when the document body is out of focus, but at this point you should consider if there is a better solution for what you are actually trying to do.
If you only need to support Chrome, manage user computers (for example, in a corporate environment) and really need this behavior, you can create your own Chrome extension that does this ( How to change the title of the current tab using a chrome extension ).
