I am trying to replicate the look and feel of the tooltip when we add the "title" attribute to an element.
- Tooltip should be hovarable
- Tooltip should be dismissable by pressing the Esc key
Currently, my custom tooltip is not hoverable. Also the look and feel is not matched with - https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_global_title
Any help is really appreciated and thanks in advance
const tooltipTrigger = document.querySelector(".tooltip-trigger");
const tooltipText = document.querySelector(".tooltip-text");
tooltipTrigger.addEventListener("mouseenter", showTooltip);
tooltipTrigger.addEventListener("mouseleave", hideTooltip);
tooltipText.addEventListener("keydown", dismissTooltip);
function showTooltip() {
tooltipText.style.visibility = "visible";
}
function hideTooltip() {
tooltipText.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
function dismissTooltip(event) {
if (event.keyCode === 27) {
tooltipText.style.visibility = "hidden";
}
}
.tooltip-text {
visibility: hidden;
position: absolute;
background-color: #000;
color: #fff;
padding: 4px;
z-index: 1;
}
.tooltip-trigger{
cursor: pointer;
}
.tooltip-trigger:hover .tooltip-text {
visibility: visible;
}

I am not so sure, but only with Css to persist the hover state for tooltip is not achievable.
Also the above posted answer is not applicable as, the author requested to make the tooltip hoverable which is not answered
