I wonder if anybody else has come across this and (more usefully) found a solution?

When the has-tip class is applied to a link element, the code grabs any click action on mobile devices and displays the tooltip. Which is of course the normally desired action. But the problem I've found is that by grabbing the click it makes the link un-clickable, which is not desirable.

The only solution I've found so far is not to use has-tip on link elements, which may well be the only possible solution.

This behaviour may differ on some systems, I've been able to observe it on Opera Mobile and MicroB on my Nokia N900 and also on the Android browser running in the desktop emulator.

If there isn't a way round this it might be worth flagging up so other developers can avoid getting caught out.
