## Overview

Things to know when using the tooltip plugin:

- Tooltips rely on the 3rd party library [Popper](https://popper.js.org/) for positioning. You must include [popper.min.js]({{< param "cdn.popper" >}}) before bootstrap.js or use `bootstrap.bundle.min.js` / `bootstrap.bundle.js` which contains Popper in order for tooltips to work!
- If you're building our JavaScript from source, it [requires `util.js`]({{< docsref "/getting-started/javascript#util" >}}).
- Tooltips are opt-in for performance reasons, so **you must initialize them yourself**.
- Tooltips with zero-length titles are never displayed.
- Specify `container: 'body'` to avoid rendering problems in more complex components (like our input groups, button groups, etc).
- Triggering tooltips on hidden elements will not work.
- Tooltips for `.disabled` or `disabled` elements must be triggered on a wrapper element.
- When triggered from hyperlinks that span multiple lines, tooltips will be centered. Use `white-space: nowrap;` on your `<a>`s to avoid this behavior.
- Tooltips must be hidden before their corresponding elements have been removed from the DOM.
- Tooltips can be triggered thanks to an element inside a shadow DOM.

Got all that? Great, let's see how they work with some examples.

## Example: Enable tooltips everywhere

One way to initialize all tooltips on a page would be to select them by their `data-toggle` attribute:

```js
$(function () {
  $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
})
```

## Examples

Hover over the links below to see tooltips:

<div class="bd-example tooltip-demo">
  <p class="muted">Placeholder text to demonstrate some <a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Default tooltip">inline links</a> with tooltips. This is now just filler, no killer. Content placed here just to mimic the presence of <a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Another tooltip">real text</a>. And all that just to give you an idea of how tooltips would look when used in real-world situations. So hopefully you've now seen how <a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Another one here too">these tooltips on links</a> can work in practice, once you use them on <a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="The last tip!">your own</a> site or project.
  </p>
</div>

Hover over the buttons below to see the four tooltips directions: top, right, bottom, and left.

<div class="bd-example tooltip-demo">
  <div class="bd-example-tooltips">
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Tooltip on top">Tooltip on top</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Tooltip on right">Tooltip on right</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" title="Tooltip on bottom">Tooltip on bottom</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="left" title="Tooltip on left">Tooltip on left</button>
    <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-html="true" title="<em>Tooltip</em> <u>with</u> <b>HTML</b>">Tooltip with HTML</button>
  </div>
</div>

```html
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="top" title="Tooltip on top">
  Tooltip on top
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Tooltip on right">
  Tooltip on right
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="bottom" title="Tooltip on bottom">
  Tooltip on bottom
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="left" title="Tooltip on left">
  Tooltip on left
</button>
```

And with custom HTML added:

```html
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-toggle="tooltip" data-html="true" title="<em>Tooltip</em> <u>with</u> <b>HTML</b>">
  Tooltip with HTML
</button>
```

## Usage

The tooltip plugin generates content and markup on demand, and by default places tooltips after their trigger element.

Trigger the tooltip via JavaScript:

```js
$('#example').tooltip(options)
```

{{< callout warning >}}
##### Overflow `auto` and `scroll`

Tooltip position attempts to automatically change when a parent container has `overflow: auto` or `overflow: scroll` like our `.table-responsive`, but still keeps the original placement's positioning. To resolve, set the `boundary` option to anything other than default value, `'scrollParent'`, such as `'window'`:

```js
$('#example').tooltip({ boundary: 'window' })
```
{{< /callout >}}

### Markup

The required markup for a tooltip is only a `data` attribute and `title` on the HTML element you wish to have a tooltip. The generated markup of a tooltip is rather simple, though it does require a position (by default, set to `top` by the plugin).

{{< callout warning >}}
##### Making tooltips work for keyboard and assistive technology users

You should only add tooltips to HTML elements that are traditionally keyboard-focusable and interactive (such as links or form controls). Although arbitrary HTML elements (such as `<span>`s) can be made focusable by adding the `tabindex="0"` attribute, this will add potentially annoying and confusing tab stops on non-interactive elements for keyboard users, and most assistive technologies currently do not announce the tooltip in this situation. Additionally, do not rely solely on `hover` as the trigger for your tooltip, as this will make your tooltips impossible to trigger for keyboard users.
{{< /callout >}}

```html

<a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Some tooltip text!">Hover over me</a>

<div class="tooltip bs-tooltip-top" role="tooltip">
  <div class="arrow"></div>
  <div class="tooltip-inner">
    Some tooltip text!
  </div>
</div>
```

### Disabled elements

Elements with the `disabled` attribute aren't interactive, meaning users cannot focus, hover, or click them to trigger a tooltip (or popover). As a workaround, you'll want to trigger the tooltip from a wrapper `<div>` or `<span>`, ideally made keyboard-focusable using `tabindex="0"`, and override the `pointer-events` on the disabled element.

<div class="tooltip-demo">
{{< example >}}
<span class="d-inline-block" tabindex="0" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Disabled tooltip">
  <button class="btn btn-primary" style="pointer-events: none;" type="button" disabled>Disabled button</button>
</span>
{{< /example >}}
</div>

### Options

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to `data-`, as in `data-animation=""`.

{{< callout warning >}}
Note that for security reasons the `sanitize`, `sanitizeFn` and `whiteList` options cannot be supplied using data attributes.

#### Data attributes for individual tooltips

Options for individual tooltips can alternatively be specified through the use of data attributes, as explained above.
{{< /callout >}}

### Methods

#### `$().tooltip(options)`

Attaches a tooltip handler to an element collection.

#### `.tooltip('show')`

Reveals an element's tooltip. **Returns to the caller before the tooltip has actually been shown** (i.e. before the `shown.bs.tooltip` event occurs). This is considered a "manual" triggering of the tooltip. Tooltips with zero-length titles are never displayed.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('show')
```

#### `.tooltip('hide')`

Hides an element's tooltip. **Returns to the caller before the tooltip has actually been hidden** (i.e. before the `hidden.bs.tooltip` event occurs). This is considered a "manual" triggering of the tooltip.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('hide')
```

#### `.tooltip('toggle')`

Toggles an element's tooltip. **Returns to the caller before the tooltip has actually been shown or hidden** (i.e. before the `shown.bs.tooltip` or `hidden.bs.tooltip` event occurs). This is considered a "manual" triggering of the tooltip.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('toggle')
```

#### `.tooltip('dispose')`

Hides and destroys an element's tooltip. Tooltips that use delegation (which are created using [the `selector` option](#options)) cannot be individually destroyed on descendant trigger elements.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('dispose')
```

#### `.tooltip('enable')`

Gives an element's tooltip the ability to be shown. **Tooltips are enabled by default.**

```js
$('#element').tooltip('enable')
```

#### `.tooltip('disable')`

Removes the ability for an element's tooltip to be shown. The tooltip will only be able to be shown if it is re-enabled.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('disable')
```

#### `.tooltip('toggleEnabled')`

Toggles the ability for an element's tooltip to be shown or hidden.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('toggleEnabled')
```

#### `.tooltip('update')`

Updates the position of an element's tooltip.

```js
$('#element').tooltip('update')
```

### Events

      <td>show.bs.tooltip</td>
      <td>This event fires immediately when the <code>show</code> instance method is called.</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>shown.bs.tooltip</td>
      <td>This event is fired when the tooltip has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).</td>
    </tr>

      <td>hidden.bs.tooltip</td>
      <td>This event is fired when the tooltip has finished being hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete).</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
      <td>inserted.bs.tooltip</td>
      <td>This event is fired after the <code>show.bs.tooltip</code> event when the tooltip template has been added to the DOM.</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>

```js
$('#myTooltip').on('hidden.bs.tooltip', function () {
  // do something...
})
