Hello everyone. So I made a tooltip showing after I hover the box with red border. The thing I want is that when I hover over the div with red border - the tooltip begin to moving/following with the mouse. Tried to search how to do it but I didn't found answer. I think it will be some jQuery code... I let you guys tell me. Thanks.

• Could you define "following" the mouse? – Elipzer Commented Oct 24, 2015 at 1:25

Try this code and no need to change the css as shown in this http://jsfiddle/bo113jxu/8/ :

$('.li1').mousemove(function (e) {
    $('span', this).css({left: e.pageX - 100, top: e.pageY + 10});
});

EDIT:

The position:absolute will work good as long as there's only one .li1 element, but in case we have more .li1 elements we'd face a problem shown in this jsfiddle demo1; TO fix this the position of .li1 should be set to fixed jsfiddle demo2.. just like what @ViktorMaksimov ^kudos said in his answer which I was wrong about it.

CSS code:

.li1 span {
  position: fixed;
  margin-left: -110px;
}

jQuery code:

$(document).ready(function() {
 $('.li1').mousemove(function( event ) {
   $(this).find('span').css({    //Position the tooltip
    'left' : event.pageX + 'px', //Left position - the X position of the mouse
    "top" : (event.pageY + 20) + 'px' //Top position - the Y position of the mouse 
   });
 });
});

Firstly the tooltip should be positioned fixed. When you are moving the mouse inside the <li> element the tooltip will have left position - the position on X of the mouse to the window, and top position the position on Y of the mouse + 20, because the tooltip not to be exactly next to the mouse, because if you move your mouse fast enough the tooltip will hide. And we are setting margin-left to the tooltip - negative value half of its width to make the tooltip centered to the mouse.
