Inspired by the excellent jQuery.tipsy plugin written by Jason Frame; Tooltips are an updated version, which don't rely on images, use CSS3 for animations, and data-attributes for local title storage.

+For performance reasons, the Tooltip and Popover data-apis are opt-in, meaning you must initialize them yourself.
-When using tooltips on elements within a .btn-group or an .input-group, you'll have to specify the option container: 'body' (documented below) to avoid unwanted side effects (such as the element growing wider and/or losing its rounded corners when the tooltip is triggered).
Invoking $(...).tooltip('show') when the target element is display: none; will cause the tooltip to be incorrectly positioned.
To add a tooltip to a disabled or .disabled element, put the element inside of a <div> and apply the tooltip to that <div> instead.

The tooltip plugin generates content and markup on demand, and by default places tooltips after their trigger element.
-Trigger the tooltip via JavaScript:
{% highlight js %} $('#example').tooltip(options) {% endhighlight %} -The required markup for a tooltip is only a data attribute and title on the HTML element you wish to have a tooltip. The generated markup of a tooltip is rather simple, though it does require a position (by default, set to top by the plugin).
Sometimes you want to add a tooltip to a hyperlink that wraps multiple lines. The default behavior of the tooltip plugin is to center it horizontally and vertically. Add white-space: nowrap; to your anchors to avoid this.

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to data-, as in data-animation="".
