Sharepoint 2010 Customize Chart Webpart Title

Question

Hello,

I want to customize the web part title to display list item name from a custom list. Is it possible to write javascript code or to use sharepoint designer? Can any one help me with this. Thank you.

Answer 1

Yes, you can do this with Javascript using the SPServices and jQuery libraries.  You can use SPServices to read the list item name from a custom list.  If you have a single web part on the page(s), you can use jQuery selectors to find the first <span> tag after an object with a class of ms-WPTitle and replace its text with the list item text.  

If you have multiple web parts, you will need to work a little harder to change the one(s) you want, but it should be possible.
