Code for Bible reference inside a footnote

Post by ebulerdo »

Hello All. this is my first post here.

I have never used TheWord but I am preparing a Bible module for a friend. This module has many footnotes and some of them contain references to scriptures. I have tagged them this way:

<RF q=*>See <a class='bible' href='#b7.6.32'>Jdg 6:32</a>.<Rf>

The footnote is displayed correctly in a popup and the reference changes its color when i click SHIFT and hover the mouse pointer over it. But it doesn't show the scripture in a new popup (not sure if this is the expected behavior) and it neither takes me anywhere if I click on the reference.

I have tried tagging this way:
<RF q=*>See <RX 7.6.32 q="Jgg 6:32".<Rf>
but it looks awful and doesn't work either.

What am I doing wrong? Is there a mistake in my code or is it some setting I haven't properly configured?

Thanks!

If they are xref just use the tag like this, not inside footnote tags <RX 7.6.32>

Or the not so good way is like this.

<RF q=*><a href="http:tw://bible.*?=7.6.32 ">Jdg 6:32 </a><Rf>

Thank you, this works fine.

I cannot simply use the other tag <RX x.x.x> because this is a reference found inside a footnote. I mean, it's not just the reference but there's more information.

But the format quoted above seems to be a good solution.

Thanks!

If you have the time, it is worth having both the <RF>xxxx x x x x x <Rf><RXxxxxxxx> straight after it. I have done so myself.
