I have setup a quick jsFiddle to demonstrate the problem.
When using either a tooltip or a popover from Bootstrap on an option element of a select list, the popover or tooltip doesn't show next to the item, but rather in the extreme upper left of the page.
The HTML I am using is:
<select size=5 id=testList>
<option value=1 rel=popover data-original-title=This is item 1. data-content=Lots of stuff to say style=color: red; >Item 1</option>
<option value=2 rel=popover data-original-title=This is item 2. data-content=Lots of stuff to say style=color: green; >Item 2</option>
<option value=3 rel=popover data-original-title=This is item 3. data-content=Lots of stuff to say style=>Item 3</option>
<option value=4 rel=popover data-original-title=Blah data-content=Lots of stuff to say style=color: orange; >Item 4</option>
</select>
The javascript call is simple:
$(function () {
$('#testList option[rel=popover]').popover({
placement: 'right',
trigger: 'hover'
});
});
What can I do to make it show up in the right place?
