Hide native tooltip using jQuery

Question

Is there a way to hide the native tooltip action when a user hovers over a anchor tag with a title attribute? I don\'t want to remove it just don\'t display the nasty yellow

Answer 1

var tempTitle = "";
$('a[title]').hover(
    function(e){
         e.preventDefault();
         tempTitle = $(this).attr('title');

         $(this).attr('title', '');

             $(this).mousedown(
                function(){
                    $(this).attr('title', tempTitle);
                }
            );
    }
   ,
   function() {
       $(this).attr('title', tempTitle);
   }
);

Try it works like a dog!
