<p dir="auto">From this <a href="http://jsbin.com/iDiZUf/6/edit?js,output" rel="nofollow">http://jsbin.com/iDiZUf/6/edit?js,output</a> snippet, you can reproduce by:</p>
<ol dir="auto">
<li>Load page: <a href="http://jsbin.com/iDiZUf/6/edit?js,output" rel="nofollow">http://jsbin.com/iDiZUf/6/edit?js,output</a></li>
<li>Click glyphicon-question-sign next to "Preapplication"</li>
<li>Click "1. Type of Submission"</li>
<li>Click "1. Type of Submission" again.</li>
<li>Try to click glyphicon-question-sign next to "Changed/Corrected Application"</li>
</ol>
<p dir="auto">The behavior you find is that the click from 5. does not show the popover as expected. I suspected this was a z-index related issue and oniijin from IRC helped troubleshoot.  Oniijin suggested modifying the javascript:</p>
<div class="snippet-clipboard-content notranslate position-relative overflow-auto" data-snippet-clipboard-copy-content="$('.easyPopover').on('click', function (e) {
  $('.in').css('z-index','-1');
  $('.easyPopover').not(this).popover('hide');
  $(this).popover('toggle');
  $('.in').css('z-index','10');
});"><pre class="notranslate"><code class="notranslate">$('.easyPopover').on('click', function (e) {
  $('.in').css('z-index','-1');
  $('.easyPopover').not(this).popover('hide');
  $(this).popover('toggle');
  $('.in').css('z-index','10');
});
</code></pre></div>
<p dir="auto">With the z-index handling in-place - popover starts behaving more like I expected.  I suspect this is the way it should behave out of the box, but I am not certain.  My goal in starting down this entire path, was to ensure that only one popover appeared to the user at a time.

<p dir="auto">Using toggle popover hidden and ok. When using hide command, popover is hidden, but button inside popover still trigering mouse over.</p>
