Javascript in WordPress pages

Also, for different statements I need to use different disclaimers but still using an asterisk. That’s why I was using that line of code which, let’s be honest, should work.

Aaaahhhh…. thanks for explaining… ?? Let me try

Okay now, :)… sorry to bug you again.

If you try here https://www.phylnex.com/let-me-tell-you-my-story/
You will see toward the bottom of the post that I have inserted the asterisks… Click on one, the popup opens, brilliant…but when you close it, it move the page to the top which can be quite annoying. Can I use the nohref attribute instead of href=”#”?

Also the first two asterisks work, then the rest don’t. Question. Are the following okay?

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

 $('#testimonial').click(function() {
  alert('Any testimonial is unique to the individual and actual results may vary.');
 });

});

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

 $('#disclaimer').click(function() {
  alert('These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. This article is for informational purposes only. See a professional health care provider if you are in need of medical care. This article is not a substitute for medical care. ');
 });

});

And then wherever I need, in multiple occasions, I use :

<a style="cursor:pointer;" nohref id="disclaimer">*</a>
or
<a style="cursor:pointer;" nohref id="testimonial">*</a>
?

Click on one, the popup opens, brilliant…but when you close it, it move the page to the top which can be quite annoying

You could do things like disable the behaviour with the href, like so (preventDefault):

jQuery(document).ready(function($) {

 $('#that-link').click(function(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  alert('Various text according to situation');
 });

});

The disclaimer seems to work for me

Yes the first two work. But try the asterisk where it says

and the pain would vanish along with the stones. It was amazing how quickly the pain went away and how quickly, easily and pain-free the stones were passing.*

It doesn’t do anything

How about (maybe that would be easier) If I add a Javascript code (whatever that would be) in the website’s footer to hook to a certain class to add a hover effect so that when people hover over a certain paragraph, a little text box with the disclaimer appears?

Any suggestion?

TabyP, you should just try the HTML Snippets plug-in.
I’m really ticked I had to resort to it, but my PayPal buttons are now back where they belong.
It allows you to insert shortcode in place of what you need.

I actually linked it in this post, but like everything else WP-related, it doesn’t work.
