Only in CSS but not JS browsers; it shows in text (non-CSS) browsers.
Right; read a silent "rather" between "Or" and "any".
Currently in Lynx 2.8.4 (or whatever came with Cygwin) the text appears and is not delimited as a sidenote at all - it appears as another paragraph. How do you mark this up to be set off as a sidenote in Lynx?)
Stick it in brackets or something, which can either become part of its normal display, or hidden by CSS so shown only for the primitives like Lynx. Making it italic or something may also help by setting it off in a different brightness/color or underline or some other hideous text effect.
Code changes: Changed showNoteToggle() to make "show" the default, but immediately call toggleNote(). We can't use onLoad because a single page can have many notes on it.
JavaScript has a miraculous thing called a "for loop". You may have heard of it. :)
This means that the default for scripted browsers is hidden - this is what we want, right?
I'd rather see them, generally.
