This pure-css popup works in FireFox, but not IE. http://tinyurl.com/6xkooa
The css is: div#popup a span {display:none;} div#popup a:hover span {display: block; position: absolute; top: 150px; left:330px; width: 300px; padding: 5px; margin: 10px; z-index: 100; color:#000000; background-color:ffffcc; font: 10px arial; text-align:left;border:1px solid #000000; } The html is: <div id="popup"> some text here <a name="#" > <u>roughly half</u> <span> footnote-ish text here </span> </a> remainder of some text here </div> When you mouse over the word "roughly," the footnote-ish text pops up. Why doesn't it work in IE?
