您可以使用数据属性，伪元素和内容创建自定义CSS工具提示:attr()等。

<div data-tooltip="This is my tooltip">
    <label>Name</label>
    <input type="text" />
</div>

.

div:hover:before {
    content: attr(data-tooltip);
    position: absolute;
    padding: 5px 10px;
    margin: -3px 0 0 180px;
    background: orange;
    color: white;
    border-radius: 3px;
}

div:hover:after {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    margin: 6px 0 0 3px;
    width: 0;
    height: 0;
    border-top: 5px solid transparent;
    border-right: 10px solid orange;
    border-bottom: 5px solid transparent;
}

input[type="text"] {
    width: 125px;
    -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
    -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
    box-sizing: border-box;
}

这个问题有很多答案，但它仍然可能会帮助到一些人。它适用于所有左、右、上、下位置。

下面是css:

    .m-tb-5 {
        margin-top: 2px;
        margin-bottom: 2px;
    }
    [data-tooltip] {
        display: inline-block;
        position: relative;
        cursor: help;
        padding: 3px;
    }
    /* Tooltip styling */
    [data-tooltip]:before {
        content: attr(data-tooltip);
        display: none;
        position: absolute;
        background: #000;
        color: #fff;
        padding: 3px 6px;
        font-size: 10px;
        line-height: 1.4;
        min-width: 100px;
        text-align: center;
        border-radius: 4px;
    }
    /* Dynamic horizontal centering */
    [data-tooltip-position="top"]:before,
    [data-tooltip-position="bottom"]:before {
        left: 50%;
        -ms-transform: translateX(-50%);
        -moz-transform: translateX(-50%);
        -webkit-transform: translateX(-50%);
        transform: translateX(-50%);
    }
    /* Dynamic vertical centering */
    [data-tooltip-position="right"]:before,
    [data-tooltip-position="left"]:before {
        top: 50%;
        -ms-transform: translateY(-50%);
        -moz-transform: translateY(-50%);
        -webkit-transform: translateY(-50%);
        transform: translateY(-50%);
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="top"]:before {
        bottom: 100%;
        margin-bottom: 6px;
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="right"]:before {
        left: 100%;
        margin-left: 6px;
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="bottom"]:before {
        top: 100%;
        margin-top: 6px;
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="left"]:before {
        right: 100%;
        margin-right: 6px;
    }

    /* Tooltip arrow styling/placement */
    [data-tooltip]:after {
        content: '';
        display: none;
        position: absolute;
        width: 0;
        height: 0;
        border-color: transparent;
        border-style: solid;
    }
    /* Dynamic horizontal centering for the tooltip */
    [data-tooltip-position="top"]:after,
    [data-tooltip-position="bottom"]:after {
        left: 50%;
        margin-left: -6px;
    }
    /* Dynamic vertical centering for the tooltip */
    [data-tooltip-position="right"]:after,
    [data-tooltip-position="left"]:after {
        top: 50%;
        margin-top: -6px;
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="top"]:after {
        bottom: 100%;
        border-width: 6px 6px 0;
        border-top-color: #000;
    }
    [data-tooltip-position="right"]:after {
        left: 100%;
        border-width: 6px 6px 6px 0;
        border-right-color: #000;
    }

    [data-tooltip-position="left"]:after {
        right: 100%;
        border-width: 6px 0 6px 6px;
        border-left-color: #000;
    }
    /* Show the tooltip when hovering */
    [data-tooltip]:hover:before,
    [data-tooltip]:hover:after {
        display: block;
        z-index: 50;
    }

HTML标签可以是这样的:

<p data-tooltip-position="right" data-tooltip="Some tooltip text here" title=" > text here </p> .

<p data-tooltip-position="left" data-tooltip="Some tooltip text here" title=" > text here </p> .

<p data-tooltip-position="top" data-tooltip="Some tooltip text here" title=" > text here </p> .

<p data-tooltip-position="bottom" data-tooltip="Some tooltip text here" title=" > text here </p> .

你可以用简单的css…Jsfiddle这里你可以看到这个例子

下面是工具提示的CSS代码

[data-tooltip] {
  position: relative;
  z-index: 2;
  cursor: pointer;
}

/* Hide the tooltip content by default */
[data-tooltip]:before,
[data-tooltip]:after {
  visibility: hidden;
  -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=0)";
  filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=0);
  opacity: 0;
  pointer-events: none;
}

/* Position tooltip above the element */
[data-tooltip]:before {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 150%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-bottom: 5px;
  margin-left: -80px;
  padding: 7px;
  width: 160px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 3px;
  -moz-border-radius: 3px;
  border-radius: 3px;
  background-color: #000;
  background-color: hsla(0, 0%, 20%, 0.9);
  color: #fff;
  content: attr(data-tooltip);
  text-align: center;
  font-size: 14px;
  line-height: 1.2;
}

/* Triangle hack to make tooltip look like a speech bubble */
[data-tooltip]:after {
  position: absolute;
  bottom: 150%;
  left: 50%;
  margin-left: -5px;
  width: 0;
  border-top: 5px solid #000;
  border-top: 5px solid hsla(0, 0%, 20%, 0.9);
  border-right: 5px solid transparent;
  border-left: 5px solid transparent;
  content: " ";
  font-size: 0;
  line-height: 0;
}

/* Show tooltip content on hover */
[data-tooltip]:hover:before,
[data-tooltip]:hover:after {
  visibility: visible;
  -ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=100)";
  filter: progid: DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=100);
  opacity: 1;
}

不使用任何API 你也可以通过使用纯CSS和Jquery演示来做这样的事情

HTML

<div class="pointer_tooltip"> 
    Click & Drag to draw the area
</div>

CSS

.pointer_tooltip{
  width : auto;
  height : auto;
  padding : 10px;
  border-radius : 5px;
  background-color : #fff;
  position: absolute;
}

Jquery

$(document).mousemove(function( event ) {
    var pageCoords = "( " + event.pageX + ", " + event.pageY + " )";   

    //set the actuall width
    $('.pointer_tooltip').width($('.pointer_tooltip').width());
    var position_top = event.pageY+18;
    var position_left = event.pageX-60;          
    var width=$('body').width()-$('.pointer_tooltip').width();

    //check if left not minus
    if(position_left<0){
      position_left=10;
    }else if(position_left > width){
     position_left=width-10;
    }       


    $('.pointer_tooltip').css('top',position_top+'px');
    $('.pointer_tooltip').css('left',position_left+'px');
});

你根本不需要JavaScript;只需设置title属性:

<div title="Hello, World!">
  <label>Name</label>
  <input type="text"/>
</div>

请注意，工具提示的可视化表示依赖于浏览器/操作系统，因此它可能会逐渐消失，也可能不会。然而，这是实现工具提示的语义方式，它可以正确地与屏幕阅读器等辅助软件一起工作。

在堆栈片段中的演示

<div title="Hello, World!"> < >标签名称> < /标签 < input type = " text " / > < / div >

下面是一个简单的工具提示实现，它可以考虑鼠标的位置以及窗口的高度和宽度:

function showTooltip(e) { var tooltip = e.target.classList.contains("tooltip") ? e.target : e.target.querySelector(":scope .tooltip"); tooltip.style.left = (e.pageX + tooltip.clientWidth + 10 < document.body.clientWidth) ? (e.pageX + 10 + "px") : (document.body.clientWidth + 5 - tooltip.clientWidth + "px"); tooltip.style.top = (e.pageY + tooltip.clientHeight + 10 < document.body.clientHeight) ? (e.pageY + 10 + "px") : (document.body.clientHeight + 5 - tooltip.clientHeight + "px"); } var tooltips = document.querySelectorAll('.couponcode'); for(var i = 0; i < tooltips.length; i++) { tooltips[i].addEventListener('mousemove', showTooltip); } .couponcode { color: red; cursor: pointer; } .couponcode:hover .tooltip { display: block; } .tooltip { position: absolute; white-space: nowrap; display: none; background: #ffffcc; border: 1px solid black; padding: 5px; z-index: 1000; color: black; } Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, <span class="couponcode">consectetur adipiscing<span class="tooltip">This is a tooltip</span></span> elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim veniam, quis nostrud exercitation ullamco laboris nisi ut aliquip ex ea commodo consequat. Duis aute irure dolor in <span class="couponcode">reprehenderit<span class="tooltip">This is another tooltip</span></span> in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur. Excepteur sint occaecat cupidatat non proident, sunt in culpa qui officia deserunt mollit anim id est <span class="couponcode">laborum<span class="tooltip">This is yet another tooltip</span></span>.
