    Summary

    Popup tooltips that work well on both desktop (hover) and mobile (tap open and close). Constrained width, so best for short tooltips or translations for a couple words at the most.

    Summary

    This is a live example how to make invisible text that can only be seen by highlighting the text. Tutorial is included in text, and you can always leave comments about questions you may have.

    MOBILE USERS: Sadly, this probably won't work for you, since highlighting in a mobile browser is different than web. I've tried correcting this, but have yet to find a solution.

    Summary

    This is a live example of how an author can create linked footnotes in their work with only a little bit of HTML and no workskins required. This is best viewed by clicking "Entire Work". While I've included the actual coding in bold and italic once you click "Hide Creator's Style", there's a more detailed explanation here.

    EDIT 6/28/17: The third chapter now shows how to use anchor links as an index/table of contents.

    Summary

    As of April 2016, The database that stores works on A03 does not allow emoji. If you try to add an emoji it will end your story there. Any words after the emoji? Poof. Gone. This is a known, if poorly advertised, issue with the archive.

    There are some workarounds; you can find them in: How to Make iOS Text messages on A03. But here? Here is for ALL THE EMOJI*.

    10 chapters of emoji tables, each with the HTML for putting the emoji into your work and the CSS for putting it into your workskin. Copy-Paste baby. Copy-Paste.

    *Does not contain the 2016 Unicode release. You'll have to come up with the code for pickle yourselves.

    (Note, because this is 10 chapters of emoji tables, here is a link to the Index Tables (chapter 1) to speed up load times and reduce confusion if you have preferences set to "entire work.")
