[dokuwiki] Re: Footnote fix, identical footnotes amalgamated

Hi,

DOM Tooltips is pretty easy to integrate with what I had already done.
According to its documentation it supports all DOM aware browsers and lists:
  IE/Win5.5+
  IE/Mac
  Gecko based browsers
  Safari
  Konqueror
  Opera 7

It is available under Apache 2.0 licence which seems ok.

I have built a wrapper to go around the footnote activation, which
simplifies the main page, allows ids to be made unique and footnote
anchors/backlinks to be removed.

The end result can be seen at the usual test page,

Comments are welcome.

Cheers,

Chris
