Problems on jisho.org, cannot look up automatically enlarged characters #87

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Search for any word on jisho.org which contains more than one character
2. Hover the cursor over any dictionary entry (it will be enlarged)
3. Hover over the enlarged kanji, other than the first one

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The enlargement is part of jisho.org's interface, for easier kanji viewing. 
Using rikaikun should still work on the enlarged kanji, but only works on the 
first kanji in each entry, and "ignores" any characters after the first one. 
The regular size characters are obscured by the enlarged box, so that only the 
enlarged kanji can be hovered over.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
rikaikun 0.8.5 on Google Chrome 25.0.1364.172 on Mac OSX 10.6.8

Please provide any additional information below.
Rikaichan on Firefox works well on jisho.org. Only rikaikun on Chrome is having 
problems. Also, the mobile version of the site, m.jisho.org, does not enlarge 
entries and rikaikun works there.

I wasn't able to reproduce your issue.

I was able to hover over every character in the enlarged kanji and see the 
definition of it.

The only problem is that jisho.org has a bug where their enlarged kanji cover 
the default position of the rikaikun definition.  (They set the z-index to 
149999.  This is a novice mistake as your z-index should only be higher than 
elements on your page.)  This is easily worked around by pressing 'a' to move 
the definition box.

I actually am having the same problem across Chrome now, including on google 
search. I don't know how to capture a screen grab that shows the mouse cursor, 
but in #1 my mouse is on the enlarged 赤, and on #2 it is on 上 just before 
the highlighted entry. Rikaikun is ignoring these characters, and nothing I 
know how to do will fix the problem.

Ah, these problems are apart of a different bug which I'll link to later.  The 
problem is characters that follow other characters with special formatting.  In 
jisho's case it's the highlighting, and in google search result case it's the 
bolding of the search term.

I'll duplicate this under the other bug later.  The problem is a combination of 
non-standard html tags and subtle bugs in chrome that make me have to write 
special cases for these types of things.

Sounds pretty complicated. I'd like to switch to chrome, but I use this tool 
too much, and it works so well on firefox, so I guess I'll stay with it for 
now. Thanks for looking into this so fast!
