Activate Tooltip Using Onclick Jquery

I'm testing a tooltip plugin and it will display a tooltip on mouseover. I'm trying to make the tooltip appear with an onclick, which I'm struggling and need your help. I'm curren

Solution 1:

basically all you would need to do it something like

$('a.tooltip_popup').click(function(e){
    e.preventDefault();//so link doesn't take you to where ever it's supposed to
    //code that brings the tooltip up
});
