Hi Tones and PMario For once you guys are both wrong.
Tones: If you go to the link you provided, and do the Run snippet, you will see it also has two tooltips. The one they generated comes up instantly, and the default one lags behind by a second. I also tried with <a href...> and it does the same thing. PMario: I am not sure you read my post carefully. The tooltip is what I want, not the link. I am just using the link widget because it has a tooltip and is inline. Not sure why you would suggest removing it. I found this solution which works great. https://www.w3docs.com/snippets/css/how-to-change-the-style-of-the-title-attribute-inside-an-anchor-tag.html On Sunday, August 8, 2021 at 9:42:37 PM UTC-4 TW Tones wrote: > The html title attribute can be used for tooltips > > <p><abbr title="World Health Organization">WHO</abbr> was founded in > 1948.</p> > <p title="Free Web tutorials">W3Schools.com</p> > > Knowing this I found How to change the style of the title attribute > inside an anchor tag? > <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2011142/how-to-change-the-style-of-the-title-attribute-inside-an-anchor-tag> > The title attribute is a Global attribute > <https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_title.asp> > > Stylesheet > a { > position: relative; > display: inline-block; > margin-top: 20px; > } > > a[title]:hover::after { > content: attr(title); > color: red; > position: absolute; > top: -100%; > left: 0; > } > > Other tiddler > <a href="http://www.google.com/" title="Hello world!"> Hover over me </a> > > Which suggests that there is no styling outside your control. > > Now all you need to do do is get your css selector to target the div span > or other element to handle your link or use the href instead.
