Examples

This example creates a Tooltip for a button. It attaches the Tooltip directly to the button element by setting the data-win-control and data-win-options properties on the button.

<button data-win-control="WinJS.UI.Tooltip" data-win-options="{innerHTML: 'Submit your Order'}">
    Submit</button>

The next example creates a Tooltip for a hyperlink.

<span data-win-control="WinJS.UI.Tooltip" data-win-options="{innerHTML: 'Microsoft Corporation<br><span>www.microsoft.com</span>'}"
style="margin-left: 40px;"><a href="https://www.microsoft.com">Microsoft</a>
</span>

The previous two examples used simple strings as the content for their Tooltip controls. If you want your tooltip to contain more complex content, such as images, and controls, use the contentElement property. The contentElement property lets you use another element as the content for your Tooltip. Here's an example:

<div data-win-control="WinJS.UI.Tooltip" data-win-options="{infotip: true, contentElement: myContentElement}">
    <a>Box Office No. 1</a>
</div>
<div style="display: none;">
    <!--Here is the content element. 
        It's inside a hidden container so that it's 
        invisible until the tooltip displays it. -->
    <div id="myContentElement">
        <div id="myContentElement_rating">
            <div data-win-control="WinJS.UI.Rating" class="win-small movieRating" data-win-options="{userRating: 3}"></div>
        </div>
        <div id="myContentElement_description">
            <p>
                You could provide any DOM element as content, even with WinJS controls inside. The
                tooltip control will re-parent the element to the tooltip container, and block interaction
                events on that element, since that's not the suggested interaction model.</p>
        </div>
        <div id="myContentElement_picture">
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

When you run the code, it displays the content element as the tooltip.

For the complete code, see the HTML Tooltip control sample.
