If you have a long tooltip, consider using DHTML instead of the title attribute.

If the title attribute is too long, the browser usually puts "..." and limits the amount of characters!

You can try making your own tooltip like acoder said!
Try something like:

.tooltip {display:block; position:relative; text-decoration:none}
.tooltip em {display:none;}
.tooltip:hover em {display:block; padding:3px; border:2px groove #fff; width:auto; position:absolute; background:#aaa; color:#fff; text-decoration:none; top:15px; left:30px}
 

How to use:

<a class="tooltip" href="#">This is my link<em>This is my css tooltip. I can style it the way i want!</em></a>
More text here to test the css
