Generally HTML has classic style tooltip as default. Here I ma presenting a updated highend one. It’s a common trick can be found on many top level websites it done by CSS2 and 3.

/*crawlist.net CSS ends*/</style>

HTML:

<p><a href="#" class="ks-tt  ks-tt--top" data-ks-tt="Upper Tooltip">Upper Tooltip</a></p>

<p><a href="#" class="ks-tt  ks-tt--right" data-ks-tt="Rightside Tooltip">Rightside Tooltip</a></p>

<p><a href="#" class="ks-tt  ks-tt--bottom" data-ks-tt="Bottom Tooltip">Bottom Tooltip</a></p>

<p><a href="#" class="ks-tt  ks-tt--left" data-ks-tt="Leftside Tooltip">Leftside Tooltip</a></p>

• The CSS contains 5 part first part is main CSS you must put this code into your style sheet it will generate tooltip. And 4 others are the style preference which side (left, right, bottom and top) tooltip you want to use; copy one of them or all of them as you like.

• The HTML has 4 individual lines for activating and using 4 different styles as your CSS preference. data-ks-tt indicates what will show on your tooltip, data-ks-tt="Place your Tooltip texts" and >Upper Tooltip</a> place your anchor text

Compatibility:
These codes are universal so they will work on any site on web browser.
