π’ Mouseover woes π’
editSome of these emoticons are really hard for me to figure out what they're supposed to be, and I'd like to add mouseover text. However...:
- Putting ":hover: {do something};" (or with two colons, or none) in inline CSS doesn't work and is a vulgar error, even though the suggestion floats futilely around the web.[1]
- Putting something like
<style> #uniqueid:hover {do:something;} </style> <a id="uniqueid">hello</a>
- doesn't work because <style> just doesn't get processed by the Wiki parser
- Even the desperate method of using an imagemap with a blank transparent gif in the background doesn't really work, because it doesn't handle a parameter. I suppose I could have a separate imagemap written up for every emoticon with its own mouseover text copied in as a string literal... but I just don't have the stomach for it just now.
