Reftagger Functionality Added To The Site

Logos.com has released a markup for Scripture references. It uses a little bit of javascript to comb a webpage and then add then convert the Scripture reference to both a hyperlink and a tooltip with the Scripture reference included. It even has a link to open it up in Libronix if it is available on the local machine. Pretty cool. Here’s a blurb from their website.

RefTagger is an amazing, free new web tool that instantly makes all the Bible references on your site come alive! Bare references turn into hyperlinks to the full text of the passage at Bible.Logos.com, making it easy for your readers to access the text of Scripture with just a click. Even better, RefTagger brings the text right to your readers by generating a tooltip window that pops up instantly when they hover over the reference. You can also have RefTagger add an icon that is hyperlinked to the passage in Logos—ideal if many of your readers use Logos. So if your website says, “One of my favorite verses in the Bible is Romans 8:28,” RefTagger will instantly turn it into this: “One of my favorite verses in the Bible is Romans 8:28 [Open in Logos Bible Software (if available)] .”
