title: Display tooltip when container overflow is hidden
body: <p>Is there a way, preferably without js, to position and display a tooltip above a container, when the container must have <code>overflow:hidden</code>, without the tooltip be affected and clipped by the container?</p>
  
  <p>Here is an example to illustrate this problem:</p>
  
  <p><div class="snippet" data-lang="js" data-hide="false" data-console="true" data-babel="false">
  <div class="snippet-code">
  <pre class="snippet-code-css lang-css prettyprint-override"><code>.container {
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
    margin: auto;
    width: 50%;
    border: 3px solid green;
    padding: 10px;
    height: 70px;
    background: lightblue;
    text-align: center;
  }
  a.tooltips {
    position: relative;
    display: inline;
  }
  a.tooltips span {
    position: absolute;
    width: 140px;
    color: #FFFFFF;
    background: #000000;
    height: 96px;
    line-height: 96px;
    text-align: center;
    visibility: hidden;
    border-radius: 8px;
    box-shadow: 4px 3px 10px #800000;
  }
  a.tooltips span:after {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    bottom: 100%;
    left: 50%;
    margin-left: -8px;
    width: 0;
    height: 0;
    border-bottom: 8px solid #000000;
    border-right: 8px solid transparent;
    border-left: 8px solid transparent;
  }
  a:hover.tooltips span {
    visibility: visible;
    opacity: 0.7;
    top: 30px;
    left: 50%;
    margin-left: -76px;
    z-index: 999;
  }</code></pre>
  <pre class="snippet-code-html lang-html prettyprint-override"><code>&lt;div class="container"&gt;
    
    &lt;a class="tooltips" href="#"&gt;Hover me for Tooltip
        &lt;span&gt;Tooltip&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
