Formatting user profile links

[Florin Manaila]

Hello,

I've been looking for quite a while now for a way to format a user profile link which would display a dropdown on hover just like the ones in the issue view.

I know this can easily be done with velocity, but i need it client-side. I get a list of users using an ajax request and then i'd like to format each one.

I couldn't find anything about the JIRA javascript API documentation.

The velocity template needed to render the link in the issue view is quite short and simple which makes me think that there are some listeners added on page load.

Does anyone know what I should use to get the dropdown on hover ?

Regards,

Florin Manaila.

Finally i found the function responsible for this in batch.js:

JIRA.userhover(context);

It scans the context for '.user-hover' and adds the necessary handlers.

I tried this using the same address for the request as the links from the issue view, but the dropdown has a "More" menu button which doesn't seem to work for me.

You might want to have a look att the JIRA Source for that piece!
