What causes my `` to function intermittently?

I've been experimenting with adding attributes and styling to elements. Sometimes my code works perfectly fine, while other times it doesn't produce the desired output.

Here's an example of when it works:

$('.card-text')
  .text((size_avg).replace(/G/,'B'))
  .attr({
    'data-html': "true",
    'data-original-title': `<strong><u>Size: </u></strong> Number of Subscribers, <strong>`+ addCommas(Math.round(size_avg)) + `</strong>`
  });

The resulting display is:

Size: Number of Subscribers, 11.5

Everything seems to be working as expected here.

However, in this instance:

$('.card-text')
  .text(Math.round(act_sub).replace(/G/,'B'))
  .attr({
    'data-html': "true",
    'data-original-title': `<strong>yoyoyo</strong>`
  });

The output is just:

<strong>yoyoyo</strong>

I'm puzzled as to why my code isn't functioning properly the second time around. Any insights?

Answer №1

It may seem silly, but I found a workaround for the second issue by inserting data-html="true" within the HTML section of the code rather than including it in the JavaScript.

Here is the HTML Code snippet:

 <p class="card-text lg-metric-val" data-container="body" data-toggle="popover" data-placement="bottom" data-html="true">-</p>

And here is the revised JS code:

$('.card-text')
   .text(Math.round(act_sub).replace(/G/,'B'))
   .attr({'data-original-title': `<strong>yoyoyo</strong>`
});

Although it seems odd, this adjustment fixed the problem. It's puzzling why passing it as a jQuery attribute worked in one part of the code and not the other.

I appreciate everyone's assistance!
