jQuery Tools Tooltip - Change Title

Question

Got a problem with the jquery plugin Tools tooltip (http://flowplayer.org/tools/tooltip/index.html) I need to change the title of the element..

   reloadTooltip();
   $("#example").attr('title', obj.text);
   reloadTooltip();

   function reloadTooltip(){
       $("[title]").tooltip({ position: "bottom right", opacity: 1 });
   }

Html Part:

   <span title="text" id="example"></span>

With my solution i got finally 2 titles, one above the other. The unstyled (ignored js), is the new one. The Tools tooltip title has not changed yet.

thank you

Answer 1

got it ! according to recently version of tooltip (as of v2.3.1) https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/blob/master/js/bootstrap-tooltip.js#L272 you need to set the attribute (not the property) 'data-original-title' because this one is that tooltip is currently using.

It's a hack but I hope it works for you as it worked for me.

$('#example').attr('data-original-title','the new text you want'); //and that's it.
