I have a link button inside a <td> which I have to disable. This works on IE but not working in Firefox and Chrome.
I tried all the following but not working on Firefox (using 1.4.2 js):
$(".myLink").attr('disabled', 'disabled');
$(".myLink").attr('disabled', true);
$(".myLink").attr('disabled', 'true');
Note - I cannot de-register the click function for the anchor tag as it is registered dynamically. AND I HAVE TO SHOW THE LINK IN DISABLED MODE.
You can't disable a link (in a portable way). You can use one of these techniques (each one with its own benefits and disadvantages).
CSS way
This should be the right way (but see later) to do it when most of browsers will support it:
a.disabled {
pointer-events: none;
}
It's what, for example, Bootstrap 3.x does. Currently (2016) it's well supported only by Chrome, FireFox and Opera (19+). Internet Explorer started to support this from version 11 but not for links however it's available in an outer element like:
span.disable-links {
pointer-events: none;
}
With:
<span class="disable-links">...</span>
Workaround
We, probably, need to define a CSS class for pointer-events: none but what if we reuse the disabled attribute instead of a CSS class? Strictly speaking disabled is not supported for <a> but browsers won't complain for unknown attributes. Using the disabled attribute IE will ignore pointer-events but it will honor IE specific disabled attribute; other CSS compliant browsers will ignore unknown disabled attribute and honor pointer-events. Easier to write than to explain:
a[disabled] {
pointer-events: none;
}
Another option for IE 11 is to set display of link elements to block or inline-block:
<a style="pointer-events: none; display: inline-block;" href="#">...</a>
Note that this may be a portable solution if you need to support IE (and you can change your HTML) but...
All this said please note that pointer-events disables only...pointer events. Links will still be navigable through keyboard then you also need to apply one of the other techniques described here.
Focus
In conjunction with above described CSS technique you may use tabindex in a non-standard way to prevent an element to be focused:
...
I never checked its compatibility with many browsers then you may want to test it by yourself before using this. It has the advantage to work without JavaScript. Unfortunately (but obviously) tabindex cannot be changed from CSS.
Intercept clicks
Use a href to a JavaScript function, check for the condition (or the disabled attribute itself) and do nothing in case.
$("td > a").on("click", function(event){
if ($(this).is("[disabled]")) {
event.preventDefault();
}
});
To disable links do this:
$("td > a").attr("disabled", "disabled");
To re-enable them:
$("td > a").removeAttr("disabled");
If you want instead of .is("[disabled]") you may use .attr("disabled") != undefined (jQuery 1.6+ will always return undefined when the attribute is not set) but is() is much more clear (thanks to Dave Stewart for this tip). Please note here I'm using the disabled attribute in a non-standard way, if you care about this then replace attribute with a class and replace .is("[disabled]") with .hasClass("disabled") (adding and removing with addClass() and removeClass()).
Zoltán Tamási noted in a comment that "in some cases the click event is already bound to some "real" function (for example using knockoutjs) In that case the event handler ordering can cause some troubles. Hence I implemented disabled links by binding a return false handler to the link's touchstart, mousedown and keydown events. It has some drawbacks (it will prevent touch scrolling started on the link)" but handling keyboard events also has the benefit to prevent keyboard navigation.
Note that if href isn't cleared it's possible for the user to manually visit that page.
Clear the link
Clear the href attribute. With this code you do not add an event handler but you change the link itself. Use this code to disable links:
$("td > a").each(function() {
this.data("href", this.attr("href"))
.attr("href", "javascript:void(0)")
.attr("disabled", "disabled");
});
And this one to re-enable them:
$("td > a").each(function() {
this.attr("href", this.data("href")).removeAttr("disabled");
});
Personally I do not like this solution very much (if you do not have to do more with disabled links) but it may be more compatible because of various way to follow a link.
Fake click handler
Add/remove an onclick function where you return false, link won't be followed. To disable links:
$("td > a").attr("disabled", "disabled").on("click", function() {
return false;
});
To re-enable them:
$("td > a").removeAttr("disabled").off("click");
I do not think there is a reason to prefer this solution instead of the first one.
Styling
Styling is even more simple, whatever solution you're using to disable the link we did add a disabled attribute so you can use following CSS rule:
a[disabled] {
color: gray;
}
If you're using a class instead of attribute:
a.disabled {
color: gray;
}
If you're using an UI framework you may see that disabled links aren't styled properly. Bootstrap 3.x, for example, handles this scenario and button is correctly styled both with disabled attribute and with .disabled class. If, instead, you're clearing the link (or using one of the others JavaScript techniques) you must also handle styling because an <a> without href is still painted as enabled.
Accessible Rich Internet Applications (ARIA)
Do not forget to also include an attribute aria-disabled="true" together with disabled attribute/class.
Got the fix in css.
td.disabledAnchor a{
pointer-events: none !important;
cursor: default;
color:Gray;
}
Above css when applied to the anchor tag will disable the click event.

Thanks to everyone that posted solutions (especially #AdrianoRepetti), I combined multiple approaches to provide some more advanced disabled functionality (and it works cross browser). The code is below (both ES2015 and coffeescript based on your preference).
This provides for multiple levels of defense so that Anchors marked as disable actually behave as such.
Using this approach, you get an anchor that you cannot:
click
tab to and hit return
tabbing to it will move focus to the next focusable element
it is aware if the anchor is subsequently enabled
How to
Include this css, as it is the first line of defense. This assumes the selector you use is a.disabled
a.disabled {
pointer-events: none;
cursor: default;
}
Next, instantiate this class on ready (with optional selector):
new AnchorDisabler()
ES2015 Class
npm install -S key.js
import {Key, Keycodes} from 'key.js'
export default class AnchorDisabler {
constructor (config = { selector: 'a.disabled' }) {
this.config = config
$(this.config.selector)
.click((ev) => this.onClick(ev))
.keyup((ev) => this.onKeyup(ev))
.focus((ev) => this.onFocus(ev))
}
isStillDisabled (ev) {
// since disabled can be a class or an attribute, and it can be dynamically removed, always recheck on a watched event
let target = $(ev.target)
if (target.hasClass('disabled') || target.prop('disabled') == 'disabled') {
return true
}
else {
return false
}
}
onFocus (ev) {
// if an attempt is made to focus on a disabled element, just move it along to the next focusable one.
if (!this.isStillDisabled(ev)) {
return
}
let focusables = $(':focusable')
if (!focusables) {
return
}
let current = focusables.index(ev.target)
let next = null
if (focusables.eq(current + 1).length) {
next = focusables.eq(current + 1)
} else {
next = focusables.eq(0)
}
if (next) {
next.focus()
}
}
onClick (ev) {
// disabled could be dynamically removed
if (!this.isStillDisabled(ev)) {
return
}
ev.preventDefault()
return false
}
onKeyup (ev) {
// We are only interested in disabling Enter so get out fast
if (Key.isNot(ev, Keycodes.ENTER)) {
return
}
// disabled could be dynamically removed
if (!this.isStillDisabled(ev)) {
return
}
ev.preventDefault()
return false
}
}
Coffescript class:
class AnchorDisabler
constructor: (selector = 'a.disabled') ->
$(selector).click(#onClick).keyup(#onKeyup).focus(#onFocus)
isStillDisabled: (ev) =>
### since disabled can be a class or an attribute, and it can be dynamically removed, always recheck on a watched event ###
target = $(ev.target)
return true if target.hasClass('disabled')
return true if target.attr('disabled') is 'disabled'
return false
onFocus: (ev) =>
### if an attempt is made to focus on a disabled element, just move it along to the next focusable one. ###
return unless #isStillDisabled(ev)
focusables = $(':focusable')
return unless focusables
current = focusables.index(ev.target)
next = (if focusables.eq(current + 1).length then focusables.eq(current + 1) else focusables.eq(0))
next.focus() if next
onClick: (ev) =>
# disabled could be dynamically removed
return unless #isStillDisabled(ev)
ev.preventDefault()
return false
onKeyup: (ev) =>
# 13 is the js key code for Enter, we are only interested in disabling that so get out fast
code = ev.keyCode or ev.which
return unless code is 13
# disabled could be dynamically removed
return unless #isStillDisabled(ev)
ev.preventDefault()
return false
Try the element:
$(td).find('a').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
Disabling a link works for me in Chrome: http://jsfiddle.net/KeesCBakker/LGYpz/.
Firefox doesn't seem to play nice. This example works:
<a id="a1" href="http://www.google.com">Google 1</a>
<a id="a2" href="http://www.google.com">Google 2</a>
$('#a1').attr('disabled', 'disabled');
$(document).on('click', 'a', function(e) {
if ($(this).attr('disabled') == 'disabled') {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
Note: added a 'live' statement for future disabled / enabled links.
Note2: changed 'live' into 'on'.
Bootstrap 4.1 provides a class named disabled and aria-disabled="true" attribute.
example"
<a href="#"
class="btn btn-primary btn-lg disabled"
tabindex="-1"
role="button" aria-disabled="true"
>
Primary link
</a>
More is on getbootstrap.com
So if you want to make it dynamically, and you don't want to care if it is button or ancor than
in JS script you need something like that
let $btn=$('.myClass');
$btn.attr('disabled', true);
if ($btn[0].tagName == 'A'){
$btn.off();
$btn.addClass('disabled');
$btn.attr('aria-disabled', true);
}
But be carefull
The solution only works on links with classes btn btn-link.
Sometimes bootstrap recommends using card-link class, in this case solution will not work.
Just add a css property:
<style>
a {
pointer-events: none;
}
</style>
Doing so you can disable the anchor tag.
I've ended up with the solution below, which can work with either an attribute, <a href="..." disabled="disabled">, or a class <a href="..." class="disabled">:
CSS Styles:
a[disabled=disabled], a.disabled {
color: gray;
cursor: default;
}
a[disabled=disabled]:hover, a.disabled:hover {
text-decoration: none;
}
Javascript (in jQuery ready):
$("a[disabled], a.disabled").on("click", function(e){
var $this = $(this);
if ($this.is("[disabled=disabled]") || $this.hasClass("disabled"))
e.preventDefault();
})
In Razor (.cshtml) you can do:
#{
var isDisabled = true;
}
Home
You can disable the HTML link as given below:
<style>
.disabled-link {
pointer-events: none;
}
</style>
Google.com
You can use inline JavaScript:
Google.com
you cannot disable a link, if you want that click event should not fire then simply Remove the action from that link.
$(td).find('a').attr('href', '');
For More Info :- Elements that can be Disabled
I would do something like
$('td').find('a').each(function(){
$(this).addClass('disabled-link');
});
$('.disabled-link').on('click', false);
something like this should work. You add a class for links you want to have disabled and then you return false when someone click them. To enable them just remove the class.
To disable link to access another page on touch device:
if (control == false)
document.getElementById('id_link').setAttribute('href', '#');
else
document.getElementById('id_link').setAttribute('href', 'page/link.html');
end if;
I would suggest turning the link into a button and using the 'disabled' attribute. You can see this issue to check how to convert a link to a button: How to create an HTML button that acts like a link
You can use this to disabled the Hyperlink of asp.net or link buttons in html.
$("td > a").attr("disabled", "disabled").on("click", function() {
return false;
});
There is one other possible way, and the one that I like best. Basically it's the same way lightbox disables a whole page, by placing a div and fiddling with z-index. Here is relevant snippets from a project of mine. This works in all browsers!!!!!
Javascript (jQuery):
var windowResizer = function(){
var offset = $('#back').offset();
var buttontop = offset.top;
var buttonleft = offset.left;
$('#backdisabler').css({'top':buttontop,'left':buttonleft,'visibility':'visible'});
offset = $('#next').offset();
buttontop = offset.top;
buttonleft = offset.left;
$('#nextdisabler').css({'top':buttontop,'left':buttonleft,'visibility':'visible'});
}
$(document).ready(function() {
$(window).resize(function() {
setTimeout(function() {
windowResizer();
}, 5); //when the maximize/restore buttons are pressed, we have to wait or it will fire to fast
});
});
and in html
<img src="images/icons/back.png" style="height: 50px; width: 50px" />
<img src="images/icons/next.png" style="height: 50px; width: 50px" />
<img id="backdisabler" src="images/icons/disabled.png" style="visibility: hidden; position: absolute; padding: 5px; height: 62px; width: 62px; z-index: 9000"/>
<img id="nextdisabler" src="images/icons/disabled.png" style="visibility: hidden; position: absolute; padding: 5px; height: 62px; width: 62px; z-index: 9000"/>
So the resizer finds the anchor's (the images are just arrows) locations and places the disabler on top. The disabler's image is a translucent grey square (change the width/height of the disablers in the html to match your link) to show that it is disabled. The floating allows the page to resize dynamically, and the disablers will follow suit in windowResizer(). You can find suitable images through google. I have placed the relevant css inline for simplicity.
then based on some condition,
$('#backdisabler').css({'visibility':'hidden'});
$('#nextdisabler').css({'visibility':'visible'});
I think a lot of these are over thinking. Add a class of whatever you want, like disabled_link. Then make the css have .disabled_link { display: none }
Boom now the user can't see the link so you won't have to worry about them clicking it. If they do something to satisfy the link being clickable, simply remove the class with jQuery: $("a.disabled_link").removeClass("super_disabled"). Boom done!
I'm noot good in english, so the title may seem a bit odd.
I want to use css function attr() like this:
I mean i have a container <div> and an inner <div> that i want to have width depending on data-width attribute. For example this would be great, but this doesnt work:
<div class="container">
<div data-width="70%">
</div
</div>
.container {
width: 600px;
height: 200px;
}
.container div {
width: attr(data-width);
height: 100%;
}
Is there any noJS way to use attributes like that?
UPDATE: Guys convinced me that the JS is the only way to do this :)
That's not a big problem (but that's bad. CSS, why youre so illogical? Is the difference between content:attr(data-width) and width: attr(data-width) so big ?).
One of the guys had an idea to go through the all elements with jQuery.
That's ok, but it is very... local? Don't know how to say it in english.
Anyway, i remaked his code a little bit and here it is:
allowed = ['width','color','float'];
$(document).ready(function () {
$('div').each(function (i, el) {
var data = $(el).data(),style = '';
if (!$.isEmptyObject(data)) {
$.each(data, function (attr, value) {
if (allowed.indexOf(attr) != - 1) {
style += attr + ': ' + value + '; ';
}
})
if (style.length != 0) {
$(el).attr('style', style);
}
}
})
})
Idea is simple:
1. We suppose that style we want to add to an element is the only one. I mean there are no scripts that will try to add some other styles,
2. We create an array of allowed attribute names, we need to avoid using wrong names at the style attribute, for example style="answerid: 30671428;",
3. We go through each element, save its data attributes in an object, check if object is empty, and if not - check every attribute if it is allowed, create a string that contains all styles that we need, and - finally - add our style string to the element as the content of style attribute.
That's all, thanks everybody
I would not advise to use CSS alone since it will not allow you to do what you're looking for... instead use a scripting language (in my case jQuery) to accomplish this functionality for you like so: jsFiddle
jQuery
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
var dataElem; // to store each data attribute we come accross
jQuery('div').each(function(){ //loop through each div (can be changed to a class preferably)
dataElem = jQuery(this); //get the current div
if(dataElem.data('width')){ //make sure it exists before anything further
dataElem.width(dataElem.data('width')); //set the element's width to the data attribute's value
dataElem.css("background-color", "yellow");
}
});
});
HTML
<p>The links with a data-width attribute gets a yellow background:</p>
<div>
w3schools.com
</div>
<div class="me" data-width="50"> <!-- change value to see the difference -->
disney.com
</div>
<div>
wikipedia.org
</div>
Notes on the above:
each, data, width.
Instead of doing data-width, use a class attribute. An html tag can have mutliple classes separated by spaces, so if you wanted to be very precise, you could set up as many classes as you need. For instance:
<div class="w70 h100">
</div>
Then in your css:
.w70{
width: 70%;
}
.h100{
height: 100%;
}
And so on.
Is there any noJS way to use attributes like that?
No, you cannot use CSS to set the width of the element to it's data-width attribute. CSS does not allow for this as attr() is only currently available for the CSS content property which is only available on css pseudo elements (::before and ::after).
How can you achieve this with as little javascript as possible?
This is extremely easy to do using the native host provided DOM API.
Select the elements using Document.querySelectorAll().
Iterate the elements and apply the styles using Element.style which can be retrieved from the data-width attribute using Element.dataset
(Demo)
var items = document.querySelectorAll('#container div'), item, i;
for(i = 0; (item = items[i]); i++) item.style.width = item.dataset.width;
This question already has answers here:
Is there a CSS parent selector?
(33 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I have the following code:
<div class="photos-wrapper" id="detailPhoto">
<div class="pseudo">
fixedTEXT
</div>
<div class="image-wrapper">
</div>
<div class="activites">
</div>
<div class="commentaire">
</div>
</div>
I want to include my own CSS style to this first and main <div class="photos-wrapper" id="detailPhoto"> but the only way to do this is by identify the grandchild selector i.e <a href="#/123456/"> because there are multiple occurrences of the same code.
Maybe it will be a bit more clear when I show what I tried:
a[href*="123456"] > div.pseudo > div.photos-wrapper[id^="detailPhoto"] {
display: none !important;
}
div.photos-wrapper[id^="detailPhoto"] < div.pseudo < a[href*="123456"] {
display: none !important;
}
That's the way I tried to do so but it obviously is not working.
The thing I am probably trying to do here is called a parent selector but I'm not quite sure.
#edit
Let's take a look on this code, it's actually more detailed:
http://jsfiddle.net/60ezqtL7/
The goal is to hide by display: none; style whole divs that are containing exactly the same values i.e. PHOTO 1
There's no need to use jQuery in this case (or many other cases).
detailPhoto.classList.toggle('hide', detailPhoto.querySelector('[href=#/123456]'))
As I mentioned in my comment to your answer, there is not parent or ancestor selecor. The easiest and most efficient way to to it via jQuery is the has() method.
$('#detailPhoto').has('a[href*="123456"]').hide(); // or use .addClass() instead
Use Google to host jquery for you.
Demo : I've used the class selector in the demo as id should be unique.
addClass Demo
UPDATE
Given your update and assuming you want to display 1 and only 1 of each photo, additional wrappers with photos with the same href will be hidden.
/*Loop through each link in div with cass psudo
in a div with class photos-wrapper*/
var found = {};
$(".photos-wrapper .pseudo a").each(function(){
var $this = $(this);
var href = $this.attr("href");
//if the href has been enountered before, hide the .photos-wrapper ancestor
if(found[href]){
$this.closest(".photos-wrapper").hide();
/*Other options:
Use Css direct
$this.closest(".photos-wrapper").css("display", "none");
Assign a duplicate class, then style that class ass appropriate
$this.closest(".photos-wrapper").addClass("duplicate");
*/
}else{
//otherwise add it to the array of what has been found
found[href] = true;
}
});
Demo
If you're not familiar with jquery, make sure to read up on how it is implemented and the purpose of $(document).ready();
Update 2
To hide all containers with replicated href use:
//Loop through each a tag
$(".photos-wrapper .pseudo a").each(function () {
var $this = $(this);
//Get the href
var href = $this.attr("href");
//Check if more than one exists
if ($('.photos-wrapper .pseudo a[href="' + href + '"]').size() > 1) {
//Hide all .photo-wrapper containers that have the replicated href
$('.photos-wrapper .pseudo a[href="' + href + '"]').closest(".photos-wrapper").hide();
}
});
Another Demo
I still suggest removing duplicates server-side if at all possible.
On a complete side note, the <center> tag was depreciated back at HTML4 and should no longer be used. Use CSS instead. There are pleanty of examples out there on how to center content using CSS.
At this time there is not a way to do this with only CSS, but you can do it easily with JQuery. This will search the descendants of #detailPhoto and hide the href (set it to display: none;).
<script>
$(function() {
$('#detailPhoto').find('a[href$="#/123456/"]').hide();
});
</script>
To search parents, you'd use this.
<script>
$(function() {
$('a[href$="#/123456/"]').closest('#detailPhoto').hide();
});
</script>
To use this you will also need the JQuery library added to the head of your document.
<script src="//code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.0.min.js"></script>
I'd like to tell the browser to assign certain CSS classes to elements matching a particular selector. Can I do it with pure CSS and if yes, how?
Example: I want all the h5 elements inside a div with id sidebar to have the class ui-corners-all
No, that isn't possible with pure CSS.
Only with JavaScript:
// jQuery
$("h5").addClass("ui-corners-all");
// Pure JavaScript
var elements = document.getElementsByTagName("h5");
for (var i=0; i<elements.length; i++)
{
var el = elements[i];
el.setAttribute( "class", el.getAttribute("class") + " ui-corners-all" );
}
There is no way to assign this value to those elements in pure CSS.
You would need to do:
#sidebar h5
{
}
Then copy all styles from ui-corners-all class into this.
Or alternatively, change your ui-corners-all CSS to:
.ui-corners-all, #sidebar h5
{
}
No, you can't. You can however use Javascript (jQuery recommended) to achieve this effect.
How can line breaks be added within a HTML tooltip?
I tried using <br/> and \n within the tooltip as follows:
Hover me
However, this was useless and I could see the literal text <br/> and \n within the tooltip. Any suggestions will be helpful.
Just use the entity code
for a linebreak in a title attribute.
Just add a data attribute
data-html="true"
and you're good to go.
Eg. usage:
<i data-html="true" class="tooltip ficon-help-icon" twipsy-content-set="true" data-original-title= "<b>Hello</b> Stackoverflow"> </i>
It has worked in majority of the tooltip plugins i have tried as of now.
The
combined with the style white-space: pre-line; worked for me.
This CSS is what finally worked for me in conjunction with a linefeed in my editor:
.tooltip-inner {
white-space: pre-wrap;
}
Found here:
How to make Twitter bootstrap tooltips have multiple lines?
\n
with the styling
.tooltip-inner {
white-space: pre-line;
}
worked for me.
Give \n between the text. It work on all browsers.
Example
img.tooltip= " Your Text : \n"
img.tooltip += " Your text \n";
This will work for me and it's used in code behind.
Hope this will work for you
I found it. It can be done by simply doing like this
<a ref="#" title="First Line
Second Line
Third line">Hover Me</a>
just use \n in title and add this css
.tooltip-inner {
white-space: pre-wrap;
}
The javascript version
Since
(html) is 0D (hex), this can be represented as '\u000d'
str = str.replace(/\n/g, '\u000d');
In addition,
Sharing with you guys an AngularJS filter that replaces \n with that character thanks to the references in the other answers
app.filter('titleLineBreaker', function () {
return function (str) {
if (!str) {
return str;
}
return str.replace(/\n/g, '\u000d');
};
});
usage
<div title="{{ message | titleLineBreaker }}"> </div>
You can use bootstrap tooltip, and don't forget to set the html option to true.
<div id="tool"> tooltip</div>
$('#tool').tooltip({
title: 'line one' +'<br />'+ 'line two',
html: true
});
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<br /> did work if you are using qTip
Just add data-html="true"
Hover me
it is possible to add linebreaks within native HTML tooltips by simply having the title attribute spread over mutliple lines.
However, I'd recommend using a jQuery tooltip plugin such as Q-Tip: http://craigsworks.com/projects/qtip/.
It is simple to set up and use. Alternatively there are a lot of free javascript tooltip plugins around too.
edit: correction on first statement.
For me, a 2-step solution (combination of formatting the title and adding the style) worked, as follows:
1) Format the title attrbiute:
<a ref="#" title="First Line
Second Line
Third line">Hover Me</a>
2) Add this style to the tips element:
white-space: pre-line;
Tested in IE8, Firefox 22, and Safari 5.1.7.
So if you are using bootstrap4 then this will work.
<style>
.tooltip-inner {
white-space: pre-wrap;
}
</style>
<script>
$(function () {
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
})
</script>
<a data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="auto" title=" first line
next line" href= ""> Hover me </a>
If you are using in Django project then we can also display dynamic data in tooltips like:
<a class="black-text pb-2 pt-1" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="auto" title="{{ post.location }}
{{ post.updated_on }}" href= "{% url 'blog:get_user_profile' post.author.id %}">{{ post.author }}</a>
Well if you are using Jquery Tooltip utility, then in "jquery-ui.js" Javascript file find following text:
tooltip.find(".ui-tooltip-content").html(content);
and put above that
content=content.replace(/\</g,'<').replace(/\>/g,'>');
I hope this will also work for you.
Just use the entity code
for a linebreak in a title attribute.
<a title="First Line
Second Line">Hover Me </a>
Just add this code snippet in your script:
$(function () {
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip()
});
and ofcourse as mentioned in above answers the data-html should be "true". This will allow you to use html tags and formatting inside the value of title attribute.
The solution for me was http://jqueryui.com/tooltip/:
And here the code (the part of script that make <br/> Works is "content:"):
HTML HEAD
<head runat="server">
<script src="../Scripts/jquery-2.0.3.min.js"></script>
<link href="Content/themes/base/jquery-ui.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<script src="../Scripts/jquery-ui-1.10.3.min.js"></script>
<script>
/*Position:
my => at
at => element*/
$(function () {
$(document).tooltip({
content: function() {
var element = $( this );
if ( element.is( "[title]" ) ) {
return element.attr( "title" );
}
},
position: { my: "left bottom-3", at: "center top" } });
});
</script>
</head>
ASPX or HTML control
<asp:TextBox ID="Establecimiento" runat="server" Font-Size="1.3em" placeholder="Establecimiento" title="Texto 1.<br/>TIP: texto 2"></asp:TextBox>
Hope this help someone
Grater than Jquery UI 1.10 is not support to use html tag inside of the title attribute because its not valid html.
So the alternative solution is to use tooltip content option.
Refer - http://api.jqueryui.com/tooltip/#option-content
Use

There shouldn't be any ; character.
if you are using jquery-ui 1.11.4:
var tooltip = $.widget( "ui.tooltip", {
version: "1.11.4",
options: {
content: function() {
// support: IE<9, Opera in jQuery <1.7
// .text() can't accept undefined, so coerce to a string
var title = $( this ).attr( "title" ) || "";
// Escape title, since we're going from an attribute to raw HTML
Replace--> //return $( "<a>" ).text( title ).html();
by --> return $( "<a>" ).html( title );
},
AngularJS with Bootstrap UI Tolltip (uib-tooltip), has three versions of tool-tip:
uib-tooltip, uib-tooltip-template and uib-tooltip-html
- uib-tooltip takes only text and will escape any HTML provided
- uib-tooltip-html takes an expression that evaluates to an HTML string
- uib-tooltip-template takes a text that specifies the location of the template
In my case, I opted for uib-tooltip-html and there are three parts to it:
configuration
controller
HTML
Example:
(function(angular) {
//Step 1: configure $sceProvider - this allows the configuration of $sce service.
angular.module('myApp', ['uib.bootstrap'])
.config(function($sceProvider) {
$sceProvider.enabled(false);
});
//Step 2: Set the tooltip content in the controller
angular.module('myApp')
.controller('myController', myController);
myController.$inject = ['$sce'];
function myController($sce) {
var vm = this;
vm.tooltipContent = $sce.trustAsHtml('I am the first line <br /><br />' +
'I am the second line-break');
return vm;
}
})(window.angular);
//Step 3: Use the tooltip in HTML (UI)
<div ng-controller="myController as get">
<span uib-tooltip-html="get.tooltipContent">other Contents</span>
</div>

Using .html() instead of .text() worked for me. For example
.html("This is a first line." + "<br/>" + "This is a second line.")
Hi this code will work in all browser !!i used
for new line in chrome and safari and ul li for IE
function genarateMultiLIneCode(){
var =values["a","b","c"];
const liStart = '<li>';
const liEnd = '</li>';
const bullet = '• ';
var mergedString = ' ';
const unOrderListStart='<ul>'
const unOrderListEnd='</ul>'
const fakeNewline = '
';
for (let i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
mergedString += liStart + bullet + values[i] + liEnd + fakeNewline;
}
const tempElement = document.createElement("div");
tempElement.innerHTML = unOrderListStart + mergedString + unOrderListEnd;
return tempElement.innerText;
}
}
This css will help you.
.tooltip {
word-break: break-all;
}
or if you want in one line
.tooltip-inner {
max-width: 100%;
}
