Is it possible to create a link to an endnote (or similar) that then supports the reader going back to the reading point, without creating an explicit link-back associated with the endnote? I cannot create a "return" link at the endnote because the endnote (actually, a reference item in the Bibliography) is pointed to from many places in the book, so an explicit, single return-to value is not possible. And the iPad has no physical 'back' button for the return.

Alternatively, is there a way to make the citation information appear in some form of "pop up" at the point of reading (similar to the 'hover' that can be created using javascript on a web page)?
