Tooltip: Spider chart, not working when redefined in IE8

[zebulon303]

If you try the example below, and do a mouse over the data point, it's working fine in FF and Chrome, but not in IE8. (Error: Invalid argument).

I would not necessarily recommend what you are doing as you are mixing regular charting tooltip whiles the spider chart has his own hardcoded tooltips mechanism (which is bad idea I agree). That said there is indeed a bug. It was fixed in trunk/1.8 not 1.7.x, I will fix it in 1.7.x as well.

fixes #15689 (was already fixed in 1.8). !strict.

This is fixing the spider chart IE8 tooltip issue. That said as I suspected mixing the regular charting tooltip with the spider chart will gives you other problems later down the road. I will see if I can do something but on that side as well even if that was not really meant to work.
