I've been trying to get Tippy.js' nested tooltip feature working but haven't had luck so far.
the following lines are placed outside jQuery's Document ready function:
tippy.setDefaultProps({
appendTo: function () {
return document.querySelector('.responseBody')
}
})
popperOptions: { strategy: 'fixed' };
tippy.delegate('.responseBody', {
target: '.tooltip'
});
the tooltip content is being added dynamically based on an extract from ajax response and the ajax function is the following:
function _loadLaunchPad(iSMHost, iSMPort, urlExtension) {
var _serverName = $('#serverName option:selected').text();
var _addOnSelect = $('#addOnSelect option:selected').text();
var _consoleCmdExprValue = $('#consoleCmdExprValue').val();
var dataString = '{ "serverSelection" : "' + _serverName + '", "operationSelection" : "' + _addOnSelect + '", "commandSelection" : "' + _consoleCmdExprValue + '"}';
var stringToSend = " <img class='preLoader' src='images/preloader.gif' title = 'Processing request'/>";
const _toolTipContentHeader = ' <div>' +
' <strong>Server Name    <span class="tooltip" data-title="<strong>hey</strong>" style="color: aqua">%HDRITEM0%</span></strong><br />' +
' <strong>Server IP Address    <span style="color: aqua">%HDRITEM1%</span></strong><br />' +

Owing to the complexity of the application, I couldn't create a repro on a fiddle/etc. The first tooltip gets displayed well, while the nested does not get displayed.
result:
Any help would be much appreciated.
If the nested tooltip is invoked using data-tippy-content with html, the value gets displayed but the HTML gets displayed raw, meaning, HTML tags appear as-is.
