Inspired by the excellent jQuery.tipsy plugin written by Jason Frame; Tooltips are an updated version, which don't rely on images, use CSS3 for animations, and data-attributes for local title storage.
<h4>Tooltips in button groups and input groups require special setting</h4>
<p>When using tooltips on elements within a <code>.btn-group</code> or an <code>.input-group</code>, you'll have to specify the option <code>container: 'body'</code> (documented below) to avoid unwanted side effects (such as the element growing wider and/or losing its rounded corners when the tooltip is triggered).</p>
<h4>Don't try to show tooltips on hidden elements</h4>
<p>Invoking <code>$(...).tooltip('show')</code> when the target element is <code>display: none;</code> will cause the tooltip to be incorrectly positioned.</p>
<h4>Tooltips on disabled elements require wrapper elements</h4>
<p>To add a tooltip to a <code>disabled</code> or <code>.disabled</code> element, put the element inside of a <code><div></code> and apply the tooltip to that <code><div></code> instead.</p>
</div>
## Usage
The tooltip plugin generates content and markup on demand, and by default places tooltips after their trigger element.
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).
<p>Sometimes you want to add a tooltip to a hyperlink that wraps multiple lines. The default behavior of the tooltip plugin is to center it horizontally and vertically. Add <code>white-space: nowrap;</code> to your anchors to avoid this.</p>

<td>
<p>Appends the tooltip to a specific element. Example: <code>container: 'body'</code>. This option is particularly useful in that it allows you to position the tooltip in the flow of the document near the triggering element -which will prevent the tooltip from floating away from the triggering element during a window resize.</p>
<p>Delay showing and hiding the tooltip (ms) - does not apply to manual trigger type</p>
<p>If a number is supplied, delay is applied to both hide/show</p>
<p>Object structure is: <code>delay: { "show": 500, "hide": 100 }</code></p>

<p>How to position the tooltip - top | bottom | left | right | auto.<br>When "auto" is specified, it will dynamically reorient the tooltip. For example, if placement is "auto left", the tooltip will display to the left when possible, otherwise it will display right.</p>
<p>When a function is used to determine the placement, it is called with the tooltip DOM node as its first argument and the triggering element DOM node as its second. The <code>this</code> context is set to the tooltip instance.</p>

<td>If a selector is provided, popover objects will be delegated to the specified targets. In practice, this is used to enable dynamic HTML content to have popovers added.

<p>Base HTML to use when creating the tooltip.</p>
<p>The tooltip's <code>title</code> will be injected into the <code>.tooltip-inner</code>.</p>
<p><code>.tooltip-arrow</code> will become the tooltip's arrow.</p>
<p>The outermost wrapper element should have the <code>.tooltip</code> class.</p>

<p>If a function is given, it will be called with its <code>this</code> reference set to the element that the tooltip is attached to.</p>

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