I have an icon that has a popover.
<i class="fa fa-info-circle" data-toggle="popover" aria-hidden="true" title="More Info" data-content="..."></i>
The popover works fine. I am trying to get it to close when the user clicks anywhere else on the page. I have found tutorials that use "focus". However it is not working, I believe it is because I am calling the popover on an icon and focus is used on buttons? I guess... Anyone know of a workaround for this?
just use data-trigger="focus"
or
$('.popover-dismiss').popover({
trigger: 'focus'
})
$(function () {
$('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover()
