GUIDE – TOOL TIPS

TOOL TIPS

• You can use the attribute title inside most tags to create a tool tip that appears when the mouse hovers over that element.
  
  For example:
  
  <p title="This is a paragraph">
  
  or

<h2 title="My header!">

• Add a few title attributes in your code and test your HTML document to see if the tool tips appear as expected.

ABBREVIATIONS

· A common practice is to use the <abbr> along with the title attribute for abbreviations. This makes a tool tip appear containing the full expansion of the abbreviation.

For example:

<abbr title="Lockerby Composite School">LCS</abbr>

· Add your own abbreviation with tool tip to your site.
