tooltip for help icons

tooltip for help icons


I want to place a help icon next to each form field, and show tooltip as long as mouse is on the help icon (just on icon not clicking it.) I don't want to show tooltip by hover on form field like the demo.

I have several help icons and by mouse hover on each of them, a separate message should be shown just for that help icon.

reading documentation I am confused between this:


  1. $( ".selector" ).tooltip({
      items: "img[alt]"
    });


and this one:



  1.  $( function() {
      var tooltips = $( "[title]" ).tooltip({
       position: {
        my: "left top",
        at: "right+5 top-5",
        collision: "none"
       }
      });
     });


I assume, the first one is for showing alt of all images and I don't want that happens. I guess I can have title tag for help icons and the second function shows them? Is it the correct choice for what I want to do? Or what is the best way to go?
