Subject: [WSG] Is it possible to style an attribute?
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could clarify whether it is possible to style
an attribute. I realise this sounds odd, so allow me to explain what I
wish to do.
In my web page there are a number of terms that need to be defined. I
like the user to be able to hover over the term and get the definition
that way. For example:
<dfn title="Made famous in the ‘Star Trek’ TV
series>teleportation</dfn>
... produces
Made famous in the 'Star Trek' TV series
... when the user hovers over the defined term 'teleportation'.
I would prefer the words 'Star Trek' to appear in italics instead (yes,
I am fussy). Is there any way to do this?
I would be grateful for responses.
Thank you and kind regards,
Grant Bailey
