Simple tooltips made of pure CSS

Balloon.css lets you add tooltips to elements without JavaScript and in just a few lines of CSS.

Usage

Positioning

For positioning, use data-balloon-pos attribute with one of the values: up, down, left or right:

<button data-balloon="Whats up!" data-balloon-pos="up">Hover me!</button>
<button data-balloon="Whats up!" data-balloon-pos="left">Hover me!</button>
<button data-balloon="Whats up!" data-balloon-pos="right">Hover me!</button>
<button data-balloon="Whats up!" data-balloon-pos="down">Hover me!</button>

Glyphs and Icon Fonts

You can also add any HTML special character to your tooltips, or even use third-party Icon fonts:

<button data-balloon="HTML special characters: &#9787; &#9986; &#9820;" data-balloon-pos="up">Hover me!</button>
<button data-balloon="Emojis: 😀 😬 😁 😂 😃 😄 😅 😆" data-balloon-pos="up">Hover me!</button>

Example using Font Awesome:

<button class="fa" data-balloon="Font Awesome: &#xf030; &#xf133; &#xf1fc; &#xf03e; &#xf1f8;" data-balloon-pos="up">Hover me!</button>
