For everyone here seeking a crazy solution, just simply try

title="your-tooltip-here"

in any tag. I've tested into td's and a's and it pretty works.

both <button> tag and <input type="button"> accept a title attribute..

You should use both title and alt attributes to make it work in all browsers.

<button title="Hello World!" alt="Hello World!">Sample Button</button>

Answer 5

Simply add a title to your button.

<button title="Hello World!">Sample Button</button>
