yes Mark, it did help - thanks. I also defined a tooltip stylesheet so that I can style it as I like with:
<$wikify name="answer" text=<<getanswer>> > <a title=<<question>> class="tooltip"> <span title="">//<<answer>>//</span></a> As a side effect, however, my original tiddler (now converted into data type) has lost its previous formatting. Is there a way to avoid this, e.g. with a smarter transclusion, so that I can keep the original format??
