Whoever ‘Sa Si Dev’ is … he/she made a replacement for the ordinary HTML SELECT element, which is nearly unrivalled.

Chris from Canada has a smart solution for showing footnotes in HTML documents: show them as bubbles above the text by clicking a tiny button, which replaces the orginial footnote. Only drawback: it’s a jQuery plugin…
