javascript - How to enable Bootstrap tooltip on disabled button?

Question

I need to display a tooltip on a disabled button and remove it on an enabled button. Currently, it works in reverse.

What is the best way to invert this behaviour?

$('[rel=tooltip]').tooltip();

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<hr>
<button class="btn" disabled rel="tooltip" data-title="Dieser Link führt zu Google">button disabled</button>
<button class="btn" rel="tooltip" data-title="Dieser Link führt zu Google">button not disabled</button>

Answer 1

You can wrap the disabled button and put the tooltip on the wrapper:

<div class="tooltip-wrapper" data-title="Dieser Link führt zu Google">
  <button class="btn btn-default" disabled>button disabled</button>
</div>

If the wrapper has display:inline then the tooltip doesn't seem to work. Using display:block and display:inline-block seem to work fine. It also appears to work fine with a floated wrapper.

UPDATE Here's an updated JSFiddle that works with the latest Bootstrap (3.3.6). Thanks to @JohnLehmann for suggesting pointer-events: none; for the disabled button.
