Troy, If I remember correctly, from when we looked at this before, we had two options.
Option 1. Use the title attribute to display a tool-tip like pop-up. <a href="foo" class=strongsnum" title="short definition here">000000</a> Limitations: - limited to one line of text. no line breaks or formatting - limited to a set number of characters. I think this was different for different browsers. - Unsure about non-Latin character support. Option 2. Place the definition inside a span, inside the anchor and hide it with the CSS, only displaying it when the mouse is hovered over the link. <a href="foo"> class="strongsnum">000000<span>definition here</span></a> This is cooler, but a little more tricky. You can see something similar here: http://www.meyerweb.com/eric/css/edge/popups/demo.html How difficult would it be for you to generate a passage for me marked up like option 2 above, so that I can toy with the CSS and try to come up with something workable? by grace alone, Don A.
