After browsing through quite a few topics on the web, I’ve come to ask directly because I haven’t found an answer to my question.
On WordPress, I try to embed an HTML image in a tooltip on a link, but the whole HTML code of my page breaks.
In my head
, I have the following JS script to activate the tooltips:
<script>
$(function () {
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip({
html: true
})
})
</script>
In my WordPress page, I have the following HTML code:
<li><a href="/jeux/tr1/solution/item1/" data-toggle="tooltip" title="<img src='/img/jeux/tr1/solution/001.png' alt=''>">Item 1</a></li>
<li><a href="/jeux/tr1/solution/item2/">Item 2</a></li>
<li><a href="/jeux/tr1/solution/item3/">Item 3</a></li>
And this is what I get:
The end of the code of the first li
is not interpreted, and the browser (Firefox in this case) displays Item 2 directly with the bugged Item 1 in the tooltip.

Do you have any idea?

OK, I finally found the answer!
There is a native function (wptexturize) in Wordpress that transforms certain characters into "smart" characters. And a little sentence in their doc explains that the "code within certain HTML blocks are skipped."
So if you have a Wordpress site and want to embed HTML code in your tooltips, remove this native function by adding this line to your theme's functions.php file.
Do you just need to enable
"data-html=true"
