Popovers in bootstrap with examples

Last Updated : 28 Apr, 2022

A Bootstrap Popover is an attribute in bootstrap that can be used to make any website look more dynamic. Popovers are generally used to display additional information about any element and are displayed with a click of a mouse pointer over that element. In the popover, if you click on any element that you include in your script, it will give a particular message as a popover and you can see your message as you defined in the script. 

It is easy to implement popovers on a website using Bootstrap as you just need to define a few attributes for the element as described below:

Syntax

data-toggle="popover" 
title="Popover Header" 
data-content="Some content inside the box"

The data-toggle attribute defines the Popover, the title attribute defines the Tile for the Popover and the data-content attribute is used to store the content to be displayed in the respective Popover.

Include the below javascript in your code to make it work.
