Minimal jQuery Tooltip Plugin - Globalliance Tooltip

Globalliance Tooltip is a simple yet fully customizable jQuery plugin for creating tooltips with fade in/out effects on any Html elements using data-tt attribute.

How to use it:

1. Include jQuery javascript and the jQuery Globalliance Tooltip plugin in the document.

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/jquery.globalliance.tooltip.1.1.js"></script>

2. The content of the tooltip is a data attribute called 'data-tt'. if this is not set, then the tooltip will not appear.

<span data-tt="This is a tooltip for SPAN">Hover me</span>

<a href="#" title="This is a tooltip" data-tt="This is a tooltip for A tag">Hover me</a>

3. The basic CSS to style the tooltips.

.tt {
    position: relative;
}

.ttC {
    position: absolute;
    display: none;
    width: auto;
    padding: 0 10px;
    text-align: center;
    line-height: 40px;
    color: #fff;
    background: #222;
    border-radius: 3px;
    white-space: nowrap;
}

.arrow {
    position: absolute;
    width: 0; 
	height: 0;
}

.arrow.arrowD {
    left: 50%;
    bottom: -10px;
    margin-left: -10px;
	border-left: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-right: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-top: 10px solid #222;
}

.arrow.arrowU {
    left: 50%;
    top: -10px;
    margin-left: -10px;
	border-left: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-right: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-bottom: 10px solid #222;
}

.arrow.arrowR {
    right: 0;
    top: 50%;
    margin-right: -10px;
    margin-top: -10px;
	border-top: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-bottom: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-left: 10px solid #222;
}

.arrow.arrowL {
    left: 0;
    top: 50%;
    margin-left: -10px;
    margin-top: -10px;
	border-top: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-bottom: 10px solid transparent !important;
	border-right: 10px solid #222;
}

4. Initialize the plugin and set the options for the tooltips.

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
$('a,span').tooltip({
backgroundColor: '#34495e',
arrow: true,
position: 'top'
});
});
</script>
