There doesn't have to be a backlink for the footnote popup to be used.

But, I've been playing with Semwize's book and I cannot get the footnote popups to display. I have changed the links to use sup tags and removed the classes. I've fiddled with the destinations to be the paragraph, an anchor, added the backlinks and cleaned up the code a bit. looking at other books that use footnotes and work, I cannot see what the difference is.
