I think this is an EPUB3 question. I will leave it here for now.
PM me if you would like it moved to the EPUB forum. BTW does your Kindle even support this action? |

For more information on footnotes, see this post by Tex2002ans. Some epub3 apps will also automatically display popup footnotes. Note that iBooks/Apple Books is rather picky when it comes to the popup footnote syntax in epub3 books. BTW, KOReader will automatically display in page footnotes in epub2 books at the bottom of a page, if the footnote has a special class attribute (footnote, note or note1) and the in page footnotes option is enabled. I.e., you might want to investigate the feasibility of using footnotes instead of Javascript code. |

You'll need to post the code that you've used for a footnote link and the corresponding footnote definition. EDIT: BTW, the kdpvalidator plugin is not an official KDP validation tool and, AFAIK, it doesn't support epub3 books. Last edited by Doitsu; 02-04-2020 at 01:25 PM. |
