              Does anybody know if there's a way to make a textual tooltip like with "<abbr></abbr>" on MyOpera - other than messing with the Markdown links syntax («[shown text]( "the-tooltip")» - which outputs like a link with the URL to the thread you post in)?

                  Just found a tip:

                  The <abbr title="World Health Organization">WHO</abbr> was founded in 1948.

                  🙂
                  (Still it doesn't highlight anyhow - as to "hover me pleeeeeeeeeeease!":)
                  Who knows how to make such a tooltip under a forum smilie? 🙂

                    Headings & paragraphs

                    <p>WWF's goal is to:
                    <q>Build a future where people live in harmony with nature.</q>
                    We hope they succeed.

                    Note: Browsers insert quotation marks around the q element.

                    Both heading tags and paragraph ones work here.
                    Tried "code", "pre", "kbd", "samp", "var" and "q" - not working.

                      The "`

                      `" tag seems to be working here: 
                      > 
                      

                      Computer code

                      Keyboard input

                      <samp>Sample text</samp>

                      <var>Computer variable</var>

                        Some useful thingie here:

                        <p title="About W3Schools"> W3Schools is a web developer's site. It provides tutorials and references covering many aspects of web programming, including HTML, CSS, JavaScript, XML, SQL, PHP, ASP, etc.

                        Hover it up:

                        <p title="About W3Schools">
                        W3Schools is a web developer's site.

                          Just found out about 2 things:

                          1. CSS ain't working here :faint:

                          2. When you use HTML in your post, local Markdown marking ain't working within the elements (shown as plain keyboard input - like "**proper**" instead of "proper").

                            Ahem!

                            What about those supposed "Markdown" "numbered lists"???

                            The above post as if contains such one - but the item numbers ain't shown altogether...
                            Let me try this:

                            blabla

                            blablabla

                            😕 (those were "#" lines - what the hell?)

                            I humbly propose we could either change the kit to something else - WORKING - or maybe do something about the existing one? Uh? :doh:

                              The leading hash mark was treated as identifying a header, you have to use actual numbers. Having said that, I've never had much luck with lists ...

                                Now on Firefox, I can see the numbers!
                                Why didn't I with Chrome?

                                          Yes, but would you mind showing your input?

                                            • Asterix space

                                            • again, just in next line

                                            • again with empty line before

                                            • again with 2 empty lines

                                            • and again with 3 lines before

                                            Ok... have to wait 600 seconds... lets add dash-space lines:

                                            • dash space just after the normal text line

                                            • and in the next line

                                            • with an empty line in between

                                            • with 2 empty lines

                                            • with three empty lines

                                              • dash space dash space, one empty line before.
                                              • asterisk space asterisk space, directly after the previous entry
                                              • asterisk space dash space. It's silly, I know.
                                              • dash space asterisk space. That's enough.
