Fix: How can we display sumo select tooltip on decoded HTML

 If you're using the SumoSelect plugin for enhancing select elements and want to display tooltips on decoded HTML within the SumoSelect dropdown, you can achieve this by customizing the tooltips with the help of JavaScript. Here's a step-by-step guide:


1. **Include SumoSelect Plugin and jQuery:** Ensure that you have included the SumoSelect plugin and jQuery in your HTML file.


2. **Create the Select Element:** Create a select element in your HTML, and use the SumoSelect plugin to initialize it.


```html

<select id="mySelect" multiple>

  <option value="1" title="Tooltip for Option 1">Option 1</option>

  <option value="2" title="Tooltip for Option 2">Option 2</option>

  <option value="3" title="Tooltip for Option 3">Option 3</option>

</select>

```


3. **Customize the Tooltip Display:** Use JavaScript to customize the tooltip display for SumoSelect. You can use a combination of jQuery and plain JavaScript to achieve this. Below is a sample code to customize the tooltips:


```html

<script src="jquery.js"></script> <!-- Include jQuery -->

<script src="sumoselect.js"></script> <!-- Include SumoSelect plugin -->

<script>

$(document).ready(function () {

  // Initialize SumoSelect

  $('#mySelect').SumoSelect();


  // Find the SumoSelect dropdown

  var sumoSelectDropdown = $('.optWrapper');


  // Bind mouseenter event to the options with titles

  sumoSelectDropdown.find('li.opt').on('mouseenter', function () {

    // Get the title attribute

    var title = $(this).find('a.opt').attr('title');

    

    // Check if the title exists

    if (title) {

      // Create a tooltip element

      var tooltip = document.createElement('div');

      tooltip.className = 'custom-tooltip';

      tooltip.textContent = title;


      // Position the tooltip and append it

      var position = $(this).offset();

      position.top += $(this).height();

      position.left += 20; // Adjust the position as needed


      $(tooltip).css(position);

      $(tooltip).appendTo(sumoSelectDropdown);

    }

  });


  // Remove tooltips on mouseleave

  sumoSelectDropdown.find('li.opt').on('mouseleave', function () {

    $('.custom-tooltip').remove();

  });

});

</script>

```


In this code:


- We initialize SumoSelect on the select element with the ID "mySelect."

- We find the SumoSelect dropdown (`.optWrapper`) and use event listeners to show tooltips when hovering over options that have a `title` attribute.

- We create custom tooltip elements and position them relative to the options.

- We remove the tooltips when the mouse leaves the options.


You may need to adjust the tooltip positioning, styles, and other aspects to fit your specific design and requirements.
