I have done a good deal of HTML page development for various different
reasons, and have found this idea to be useful in many cases. I propose an
addition to HTML 3.0 that would allow small windows to pop up when the mouse
is overtop of some keywords, containing some information. Example:
<body>
This is a new feature of
<window show="HyperText Markup Language">HTML</window>.
</body>
OR
<body>
This is a new feature of
<a html="HyperText Markup Language" window>HTML</a>.
</body>
Rendered
This is a new feature of HTML
\_________________________
|HyperText Markup Language|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There are many times when this would be useful to present information. From
my experience in programming, it does not seem a difficult task to add such
a feature in a browser. The tag is simple and aids the general puprpose of
HTML. I would appresiate any feedback and discussion on it's possibilities
or functionality.
