  • 0

I am trying to show Jquery UI tooltip on page load with a close/cross mark icon inside tool tip content. Tooltip should be closed on clicking X icon. I dont want to use any plugins. Please suggest logic.

Tried the below code to hide tooltip after 5 seconds.

var dur=5000; 
$(document).tooltip({
  show:{
      effect:'slideDown'
  },
  track:true,
  open: function( event, ui ) {
      setTimeout(function(){
      $(ui.tooltip).hide();
   }, dur);
  }
});

    If you want to use the tooltip in this manner, you cannot use $(document).tooltip(). Instead, you would have to use $(selector).tooltip().focus(), which will force the tooltip open.

    Then you would need to bind a click event and do the following: $(selector).tooltip("destroy").

    Using your jsfiddle, I’ve done the following changes:

    HTML:

    <p id="p1" title="Sample Tool Tip Text">Tooltips</p>

    JAVASCRIPT:

    $(function () {
     $("#p1").tooltip({
       items: "p", //use this to override content - in this example, I am using "p" but you can also use classes/id's/etc
       content: function (){
        if ($(this).is("p") ) {
          var text = $(this).attr("title");
          return text + '<span style="position:absolute;top:0;right:0;" class="tooltipClose ui-icon ui-icon-circle-close"></span>';
         }
       },
       position: {
         using: function (position, feedback) {
           $(this).css(position);
           $("<div>")
           .addClass("arrow")
           .addClass(feedback.vertical)
           .addClass(feedback.horizontal)
           .appendTo(this);
         }
       }
     }).focus();

   $(".tooltipClose").click(function(){
      $("#p1").tooltip("destroy");
   });
 });

    Here is a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/u8kX9/9/

    Hope this is what you’re looking for! Let me know if you need anything else!
