Tooltip appearing when no title attribute exists

Posted: Jan 4, 2010

A blank tooltip box appears when there is no "title" attribute in my link.

For example the link might look like this:-

<a  href="http://www.yahoo.com" class="tooltiplink">yahoo</a>

I need to ensure that when there is no title attribute or if the attribute is an empty string the tooltip is not displayed.

Do I need to write my own onBeforeShow function to handle this? I would have thought most developers would want this behaviour by default.

Any help much appricated.

You just need to modify your initialization of the tooltip, so instead of putting tooltips on all elements of class "tooltiplink" you need to select that class which does also contains a "title" attribute. You probably have something like:
$('.tooltiplink').tooltip();
When you need
$('.tooltiplink [title]').tooltip();

Please mark this thread solved if this solves your problem.
