Web appropriate footnoting

April 4th, 2009 by Hang

I’ve never liked sites that replicate the paper-based conventions for footnoting. The entire point of the web is that it’s non-linear and multi-dimensional. Does anyone know of any good tools (or website) that have footnotes in-place in the text which dynamically expand when you click on them?

    Most of the Window OS/control-panel-item-specific HTML help (CHM) pages have green-coloured text that displays a pop-up definition.
