Asking if it's possible... haven't attempted yet 1 Year, 11 Months ago  
I am making a free website for students studying English. I want to add a popup window for each word with the definition and an example sentence.

I have many articles and I have a special dictionary of about 7,000 words that includes the pronunciation and a simple example sentence.

I tried a glossary plugin. That didn't work because it's too much to load in the buffer or cache... or something (I'm not a professional coder).

So, I want ReReplacer to use my 7,000 word database, scan all my articles, and put a popup window with the definition when a user scrolls over the word. That means every instance of a matching word would have a pop-up window.


If it's possible, I'll try to figure it out, but no use getting started if it's not possible.

So, the question is... Is it possible to do this with ReReplacer?

If not, might you know of another tool more suited to this specific task?

It is probably possible, but it would be pretty heavy too.
So I am not sure ReReplacer is the way to go. I think it is better to use an extension designed for your exact purpose.
