});
});

Just add this css rules to your .tooltip class:
position: absolute;
top: 40px; /* define how much space from tooltip to the top
and this javascript:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".tooltip").hide();
$("#help").on({
mouseenter: function (e) {
$("#showtooltip").show();
$("#showtooltip").css('left', e.pageX); // added
},
mouseleave: function () {
$("#showtooltip").hide();
}
});
$("#help1").on({
mouseenter: function (e) {
$("#showtooltip1").show();
$("#showtooltip1").css('left', e.pageX); // added
},
mouseleave: function () {
$("#showtooltip1").hide();
}
});
$("#help2").on({
mouseenter: function (e) {
$("#showtooltip2").show();
$("#showtooltip2").css('left', e.pageX); // added
},
mouseleave: function () {
$("#showtooltip2").hide();
}
});
});
I added only this line in javascript mouseenter function:
$("#showtooltip").css('left', e.pageX);
It sets the tooltip left coordinate, in case you have many items, the tooltip will show exactly beneath the hovered item.
Customization
If you want the tooltip right of the hovered item, you will need to add this css:
var rightMargin = 20; // or whatever fits your needs
$("#showtooltip").css('left', e.pageX + rightMargin);
and change your css top property above.
Update
Since this code of yours is very coupled and you asked for a better solution, here it is jQuery code:
$(document).ready(function() {
$(".tooltip").hide();
$(".help").on({
mouseenter: function (e) {
var tooltip = $(this).next(); tooltip.show();
tooltip.css('left', e.pageX + 20);
},
mouseleave: function () {
$(this).next().hide();
}
});
});
to work this, you gonna have to remove your coupled ids and instead add to every anchor tag class help.
the code simply checks if the user is hovering a link, and if so, then just show the next element after it, which happens to be the tooltip.
Here is a FIDDLE

How to delay jquery hover event

I have a menu with categories,
when I hover on a category a drop down show up
(I have already delayed the drop down to show up after 600 MS),
I want to know how to delay the hover event on the category too for 600 MS,
What is the best way and easiest way to achieve this using jquery?
jQuery('div.dropdown').hover(function() {
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').addClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, true).delay(600).fadeIn(0);
}, function() {
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').removeClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, true).delay(600).fadeOut(0);
});
I have made a bootply here http://www.bootply.com/lXioubaMre

You could use a basic CSS transition
.services-shortcut {
transition: all 0s .6s;
}
that runs immediately after a 600ms delay
Example: http://www.bootply.com/xppQzbvQ3P
If you choose to do this effect absolutely in javascript (but I wouldn't do it, just to keep off style from javascript) then apply the active class after a 600ms timeout, e.g.
jQuery('div.dropdown').hover(function() {
var $this = $(this);
setTimeout(function() {
$this.find('.services-shortcut').addClass('active');
}, 600);
$this.find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, true).delay(600).fadeIn(0);
}, ...
If you use this approach then you should also clear the interval onmouseout

You can use hoverIntent jQuery plugin, which triggers functions based on client mouse movement. In your case the script would be simple, you can take a look at this Bootply:
function showMenu(e) {
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').addClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').show();
};
function hideMenu(e) {
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').removeClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').hide();
};
$("div.dropdown").hoverIntent({
over: showMenu,
out: hideMenu,
sensitivity: 3,
timeout: 800
});
$(".dropdown-menu a").hoverIntent({
over: function(){
$(this).addClass('active')
},
out: function(){
$(this).removeClass('active')
},
sensitivity: 3
});

I would use $.hoverDelay() plugin that does exactly that. It lets you configure the delay(s) for the 'in' and 'out' events like so:
$('div.dropdown').hoverDelay({
delayIn: 200,
delayOut:700,
handlerIn: function($element){
$element.css({backgroundColor: 'red'});
},
handlerOut: function($element){
$element.css({backgroundColor: 'auto'});
}
});

You can simply use jQuery.delay() method :
jQuery('div.dropdown').hover(function() {
alert("Action delayed");
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').addClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, true).delay(600).fadeIn(0);
}, function() {
jQuery(this).find('.services-shortcut').removeClass('active');
jQuery(this).find('.dropdown-menu').stop(true, true).delay(600).fadeOut(0);
}).delay(600);
.dropdown{
background-color:red;
]
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="dropdown">
aaaa
</div>
That will wait for 600ms before executing your action, that's all you need.

Jquery Mobile opacity doesn't work :(

How to make this button pulsate on jQuery mobile?
Are there problems with jQuery mobile because in my main application on some divs I can apply this pulsating effect and on other they just flicker, or fade in and out with interruptions or it jerky fades in and out.
html:
<button id="pulsate">I want to pulsate!</button>
JS:
$('#pulsate').on('click', function () {
pulsate("#pulsate");
});
function pulsate(element) {
$(element || this).animate({ opacity: 0 }, 500, function() {
$(this).animate({ opacity: 1 }, 500, pulsate); });
}
http://jsfiddle.net/alecstheone/zCUSK/
I only use jquery and jquerymobile... I noticed that if I disable jquerymobile in jsfiddle it works but I dont want this as I use jquerymobile in my application for other things...

Your code works fine but you've to make some changes to your script, As you're having a click event on the button but using jQuery mobile your button is wrapped around with span and divs(mainly because of jquery mobile css),
So you just have to traverse through that target div with .closest() to set your animation effect. Below is the small demo of your code with the desired effects.
$('#pulsate').on('click', function () {
pulsate(this); // Change here
});
function pulsate(element) {
$(element || this).closest("div.ui-btn").animate({
opacity: 0
}, 500, function () {
$(this).closest("div.ui-btn").animate({
opacity: 1
}, 500, pulsate);
});
}

jQuery toggle alternative way?

Since toggle is deprecated I used this to toogle div:
$("#syndicates_showmore").on("click", function () {
if (!clicked) {
$('#syndicates').fadeTo('slow', 0.3, function () {
$(this).css(
{
'height': 'auto',
'overflow': 'none'
});
}).fadeTo('slow', 1);
setTimeout(function () {
$("#syndicates_showmore").text("Show less");
}, 500);
clicked = true;
}
else {
$('#syndicates').fadeTo('slow', 0.3, function () {
$(this).css(
{
'height': '290px',
'overflow': 'hidden'
});
}).fadeTo('slow', 1);
setTimeout(function () {
$("#syndicates_showmore").text("Show more");
}, 500);
clicked = false;
}
});
Is there any cleaner way to do this?

According to the jQuery 1.9 Upgrade Guide:
.toggle(function, function, ... ) removed
This is the "click an element to run the specified functions" signature of .toggle(). It should not be confused with the "change the visibility of an element" of .toggle() which is not deprecated. The former is being removed to reduce confusion and improve the potential for modularity in the library. The jQuery Migrate plugin can be used to restore the functionality.
In other words, you can still use .toggle like this:
var clicked = false;
$("#syndicates_showmore").on("click", function () {
clicked = !clicked;
var showText = "Show " + (clicked ? "more" : "less");
$('#syndicates').toggle(function () {
$("#syndicates_showmore").text(showText);
});
});

Taken from jQuery API
$("#clickme" ).click(function() {
$( "#book" ).toggle( "slow", function() {
// Animation complete.
});
});

The best alternative is to use .toggleClass():
$("#syndicates_showmore").on("click", function () {
$('#syndicates').toggleClass("newClass, 1000", "easeInOutBounce")
});
jQuery .toggleClass() API Documentation:
Description: Add or remove one or more classes from each element in the set of matched elements, depending on either the class's
presence or the value of the switch argument.
If using with jQuery UI you can easily animate it with using different easing options.
Easings:
Easing functions specify the speed at which an animation progresses at
different points within the animation. jQuery UI provides several additional
easing functions, ranging from variations on the swing behavior to
customized effects such as bouncing.

Jquery: Small bind hover/unbind snippet of code, few lines long, don't know what's wrong

I've created DIV.cb-toggle, when the user hovers over this div, it animates to Orange, when they hover off of this div, it animates back to gray, when the user clicks this div, it animates to blue, telling the user that it's been selected. So when it's NOT selected, it has mouseenter mouseleave animations, but when it's selected i want to unbind these events, I DO NOT want the hover event to work when it's been selected, only when it's not selected. What's the best way to do what i'm trying to accomplish? I came up with the code below but i'm pretty sure this is a horrible way to do it and i don't know what to do. thank you so much for any help.
my code:
$('.cb-toggle').toggle(function() {
$(this).animate({"background":"blue", "color":"#fff;"});
$(".cb-toggle").unbind("click.myfadee");
}, function() {
$(this).animate({"background":"gray", "color":"#fff;"});
$('.cb-toggle').trigger('mouseenter');
});
});
and I'm calling this bind:
$(".cb-toggle").bind("click.myfadee", function(){
$(".cb-toggle").mouseenter(function() {
$(this).animate({"background":"orange", "color":"#fff;"});
}).mouseleave(function() {
$(this).animate({"background":"gray", "color":"#fff;"});
});
});
I need to keep the background color animation, it needs to fade.

I would use CSS for the styling to simplify your whole setup without un/re-binding, like this:
.cb-toggle { background: blue; color: #fff; }
.cb-toggle.active { background: gray; }
.cb-toggle.active:hover { background: orange; }
Then you can do just this:
$('.cb-toggle').click(function() {
$(this).toggleClass("active");
});
This approach also lets you offload all styling, colors, etc to the CSS, meaning no JavaScript changes are needed when you decide to tweak the colors or any other styling :)
Or, if you need to support IE6, add a .live() handler for the hover that triggers on only the ones with the .active class, like this:
$(".cb-toggle.active").live('mouseenter', function() {
$(this).addClass('hover');
}).live('mouseleave', function() {
$(this).removeClass('hover');
});
With matching CSS:
.cb-toggle.active.hover { background: orange; }

You should probably just use a selected class. Also I'd recommend against using any of the .css() calls you have here. Just use classes.
$(".cb-toggle").bind("click.myfadee", function(){
$(this).toggleClass('selected');
});
$('.cb-toggle').toggle(function() {
var $this = $(this);
if ( $this.is('.selected') ) {
$this.css({"background":"blue", "color":"#fff;"});
}
}, function() {
var $this = $(this);
if ( $this.is('.selected') ) {
$this.css({"background":"gray", "color":"#fff;"});
}
});
