if you want to use $('#data_btn').title = returnData;, do this: $('#data_btn')[0].title = returnData;, html() is undefined, so just assign returnData to your title

You never use .title = html(returndata); the = sign in a jQuery chain... also, .title() is not a function.

Use the following:

$('#data_btn').attr('title', $(this).html(returndata));
