[WSG] which tag to use for link to reference?

2012-06-30 Thread tee
In scholarly paper and report, we often use number (e.g.. 1, 2. 3,  displays in 
sup) in between paragraphs when referencing others' work. What is the name of 
the tag used in such manner in HTML or ebook format?


Thanks!

Are you referring to a citation tag cite?

Re: [WSG] which tag to use for link to reference?

2012-06-30 Thread tee
Sort of. 

But I looked up from HTML5 tag, cite doesn't' seem to be the correct ones to 
use.

Example of my text when we do it in a Word document.

One model to explain political power, ...is referred to as the monolithic 
theory . 3

Where 3 is superscribed, and at the footnote of the given page where the quoted 
texts located, or references (such as a book title, page # etc)

In a case like this, wrapping 3 in cite doesn't seem correct to me.

I thought maybe I can use hyperlink for monolithic instead of adding 3 (which 
will be directed to Appendix), but this often is not desirable because in other 
sections of paragraphs where citations are used, there aren't alway clear 
sentences to hyperlink.


This is for an ebook project, it's different from the webpage, and the readers 
are more accustom to the footnotes, but footnote doesn't work for ebook format, 
because devices' sizes vary, and portrait vs landscape view affects text flow 
too so strictly speaking there isn't pagination.

A hyperlink (to an aside) is the closest thing HTML has AFAIK.

 This is for an ebook project, it's different from the webpage, and the 
 readers are more accustom to the footnotes, but footnote doesn't work for 
 ebook format, because devices' sizes vary, and portrait vs landscape view 
 affects text flow too so strictly speaking there isn't pagination.



The example syntax given in the EPUB specification[1] is:

html … xmlns:epub=http://www.idpf.org/2007/ops;
…
p … a epub:type=noteref href=#n11/a … /p
…
aside epub:type=footnote id=n1
…
/aside
…
/html

 In HTML, :root is functionally equivalent to html. Not supported by IE

Firstly “Do websites need to look exactly the same in every browser?”
http://dowebsitesneedtolookexactlythesameineverybrowser.com/

This wasn't on my radar, but even still, there are better solutions out
there to handle CSS. I looked through the little documentation that this
tool gave, and I doubt it has the level of support that Compass and SASS
have. I would stick with Compass and SASS; they have a good following and
community around them and there are loads of extensions (mixins, functions
etc.) in Github and the like.

For the record, I was referring to :root, not the site mentioned by the OP.
