The Popover plugin works same as like tooltips. It opens a popup box when the use clicks on element. The only difference is that popover can contain more content then tooltip.
There are following popover methods:
- popover(options) – Activates the popover with an option. See options above for valid values
- popover("show") - Shows the popover
- popover("hide") – Hides the popover
- popover("toggle") - Toggles the popover
- popover("destroy") - Hides and destroys the popover
Example:
- <!DOCTYPE html>
- <html>
- <head>
- <title>Popover Plugin Sample</title>
- <meta charset="utf-8">
