Often using <acronym /> and <abbr /> elements, I wondered (but didn't look
for, so excuse me if this post is redundant or the problem already solved) if
there is any possibility to resolve these elements when printed. I imagine
anything like this (in print rules, but maybe even in screen rules):
acronym, abbr { resolve: true; }
There would be two possible values (true|false), e.g. using 'false' as
default. -- When printed (or generally displayed), it could be rendered like this:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language)
Captology (Computers as persuasive technologies)
thus displaying the acronym or abbreviation description in brackets. -- Like
I mentioned before, I didn't test current behaviors, but I'd appreciate a
solution like shown above.
Regards,
Jens Meiert.
