Tooltip behavior
Create JS-code for the tooltip behavior.
When a mouse comes over an element with data-tooltip
, the tooltip should appear over it, and when it’s gone then hide.
An example of annotated HTML:
<button data-tooltip="the tooltip is longer than the element">Short button</button>
<button data-tooltip="HTML<br>tooltip">One more button</button>
Should work like this:
In this task we assume that all elements with data-tooltip
have only text inside. No nested tags (yet).
Details:
- The tooltip should not cross window edges. Normally it should be above the element, but if the element is at the page top and there’s no space for the tooltip, then below it.
- The tooltip is given in the
data-tooltip
attribute. It can be arbitrary HTML.
You’ll need two events here:
mouseover
triggers when a pointer comes over an element.mouseout
triggers when a pointer leaves an element.
Please use event delegation: set up two handlers on document
to track all “overs” and “outs” from elements with data-tooltip
and manage tooltips from there.
After the behavior is implemented, even people unfamiliar with JavaScript can add annotated elements.
P.S. Only one tooltip may show up at a time.
