Bootstrap multiple popover display and placement

Question

I have multiple form input and text fields on which I want a popover to display when the field is in focus. Since the content of some of the popovers can be lengthy I don't want to declare the content inside the input tag. Instead I have the following:

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="name">Name</label>

    <input type="text" class="form-control js-tooltip-trigger" id="name" maxlength="50" >  

    <div class="js-tooltip" style="display: none;">
        <p><strong>Your name.</strong></p>
        <p>Enter your full name. This will be used ...</p>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="ref">Reference</label>

    <input type="text" class="form-control js-tooltip-trigger" id="ref" maxlength="50" >  

    <div class="js-tooltip" style="display: none;">
        <p><strong>Your reference is optional.</strong></p>
        <p>Enter a code of your choice for reference purposes.</p>
   </div>
</div>

I have the following javascript

$(function () {
   $('.js-tooltip-trigger').popover({
       html: true,
       trigger: 'focus',
       content: function () {
           return $(correct tool tip).html();
       }
   });
});

How can I get the correct popover to display or returned in the above javascript. What if I add a data attribute to the tool-tip content to link it to each input field e.g <div class="js-tooltip" style="display:none;" data-tooltip="name"> and then use some jquery to find and return it. How would you do this with jquery? Does anyone have a more elegant solution?

Also how do I get the popover to remain with the input field and auto position upon window resize. Currently it floats away when I resize the window.

Manage to figure it out myself using the above html:

$(function () {
   $('.js-tooltip-trigger').popover({
       html: true,
       trigger: 'focus',
       content: function (e) {
           return $(this).parent(".form-group").find(".js-tooltip").html();
       }
   });
});

Can anyone think of a more elegant solution?

Answer 1

You can do like this way...Here is the DEMO

Jquery Part

 $(function(){

    // Enabling Popover Example 1 - HTML (content and title from html tags of element)
    $("[data-toggle=popover]").popover();

    // Enabling Popover Example 2 - JS (hidden content and title capturing)
    $(".form-control").popover({
        html : true, 
        content: function() {
          return $('.js-tooltip').html();
        },
        title: function() {
          return $('.js-tooltip').html();
        }
    });


});

HTML Part

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="name">Name</label>

    <input type="text" class="form-control js-popover-trigger" id="name" maxlength="50" data-container="body" data-toggle="popover" data-placement="bottom" data-content="Your name" >  

    <div class="js-tooltip" style="display: none;" id="n1">
        <p><strong>Your name.</strong></p>
        <p>Enter your full name. This will be used ...</p>
    </div>
</div>

<div class="form-group">
    <label for="ref">Reference</label>

    <input type="text" class="form-control js-popover-trigger" id="ref" maxlength="50" data-container="body" data-toggle="popover" data-placement="bottom" data-content="Your reference is optional">  

    <div class="js-tooltip" style="display: none;" id="t2">
        <p><strong>Your reference is optional.</strong></p>
        <p>Enter a code of your choice for reference purposes.</p>
   </div>
</div>
