Initiate Bootstrap prompt manually

Question

With bootstrap popovers you can control when to hide and show them on any element

<span id="span">Click me</span> <script> $('#span').click(function(){ $(this).popover({ title: 'some title', content: 'nice popover', trigger: 'manual', placement:'top', html: true }).popover('show'); clickedAway = false isVisible = true }); $(document).click(function() { if(isVisible & clickedAway){ $('#span').popover('hide') isVisible = clickedAway = false }else{ clickedAway = true } }); </script> 

How can I do the same with tooltips? The difference with popovers and tooltips seems to be that tooltips start with loading the DOM, and popovers can be triggered manually from the event listener.

As I understand it, you can call:

 $('#id').tooltip({ ...config... }); $('#id').tooltip('show'); 

At any point?
