Html Tooltip not working in notes (with the or CSS)

I tried to improve the readability of my notes by moving some stuff (such as references or less important information) in a Tooltip, but none of the option I tried worked.

I tried :

● the HTML title attribute:

< p >< abbr title ="My tooltip">Mouse over here</ abbr>Some text</ p>
< span title="My tooltip">Mouse over here</ span>

● a regular CSS tooltip like https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_tooltip.asp (I added all the css to extensions.zotero.note.css )

Is there a way to make these 2 options work or to have a tooltip in any other way in a Zotero note ?

    Any idea if using tooltip (or css rules) is possible?
  • Vialo
    No one out there knows how to create a tooltip or css rules in Zotero?

    I haven't tested this, but most rich text editors allow only a filtered subset of html, so I'm not surprised this doesn't work.

    Vialo, one solution is to add the .css rules from your w3schools.com link to some .css file in zotero.jar and add a class to the div/span in your notes.

    You can also use this plugin:
    https://github.com/Gettyk/Zotero_plugin

    In either case, you will have to apply the modifications each time you update Zotero.
