Getting a glossary item to show when mouseover

On the Jack Horner page right at the top I removed apostrofi after ACC. This resulted in the definition of ACC no longer showing up when you put the mouse cursor over it. Is there a handling of this?

No, as far as the computer is concerned, removing the apostrophe changes the word to four letters.

If you want to be syntactically correct AND show the definition - do something like...

"He ran [[ACC]]s..."

or

"He ran [http://scientolipedia.org/info/ACC ACC's]..."

Which will give either

This "He ran ACCs..."

or

This "He ran ACC's..."

OR - you could create a new glossary item for "ACCs" (with the same definition as for "ACC") and the mouse-over will work for when that is used.

First solution didn't work as it rooted me to the glossary item rather than showing the glossary item when I'm asked over the words. I think I'll work on the other solution tomorrow thank you.
