I have a problem with bootstrap\'s tooltip : When I click on a button, tooltip stays even if is the cursor is outside of the button. I have looked into the manual - Bootstra
Using a forced blur() has the potention to reduce the user experience. I wouldn't do that. I found that removing the "data-original-title" as well as removing the attributes "data-toggle" and "title" worked for me.
$(id).tooltip('hide');
$(id).removeAttr("data-toggle");
$(id).removeAttr("data-original-title");
$(id).removeAttr("title");
