The HTMLElement.title property represents the title of the element, the text usually displayed in a 'tool tip' popup when the mouse is over the displayed node.

If a node does not have a title attribute, then the default action is to inherit it from its parent node, which in turn may inherit it from its parent node, etc.

 <div title="CoolTip">
   <div title="">mouse over here will popup "CoolTip"</div>
   <div title=" ">mouse over here will popup nothing"</div>
 </div>

Syntax

var str = element.title;
element.title = str;

Example

 button1.title = "click to refresh";
