Hello Nicolas,
Many thanks for explaining the logic and functionality
of the new exporter.
I confess I am puzzled by the choice to drop the ability
to apply attributes to links.
The use case I'm aiming for is a standard HTML feature:
3.2.3.2 The 'title' attribute
The title attribute represents advisory information for the
element, such as would be appropriate for a tooltip. On a link,
this could be the title or a description of the target resource;
on an image, it could be the image credit or a description of
the image; on a paragraph, it could be a footnote or commentary
on the text; on a citation, it could be further information
about the source; and so forth.
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/global-attributes.html#the-title-attribute
In org-e-html today, it is only possible to attach a unique
attribute to a paragraph; all links within that paragraph
inherit its attributes. If a paragraph contains two links,
they are both forced to show the same tooltip.
The old exporter allowed this specificity, correctly
interleaving link and image titles in one paragraph:
Org input:
--------------------------------------------------
A paragraph with three papers, and an image:
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #1"
[[./local/01.html][a first paper]]
followed by
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #2"
[[./local/02.html][a second paper]]
which describe stuff. It then offers a cat
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Some cats" alt="Cat image"
[[./local/cats.png]]
and finally a third, PDF paper
#+ATTR_HTML: title="Paper #3"
[[./local/03.pdf][a third paper]]
--------------------------------------------------
Old exporter:
--------------------------------------------------
<p>
A paragraph with three papers, and an image:
<a href="./local/01.html" title="Paper #1">a first paper</a>
followed by
<a href="./local/02.html" title="Paper #2">a second paper</a>
which describe stuff. It then offers a cat
<img src="./local/cats.png" title="Some cats" alt="Cat image" />
and finally a third, PDF paper
<a href="./local/03.pdf" title="Paper #3">a third paper</a>
</p>
--------------------------------------------------
I believe that this ability, this specificity within
paragraphs, is generally quite useful, and I hope that
you will consider it for the new exporter.
If I'm missing something, if there /is/ a way to add
individual link attributes, please let me know.
It doesn't sound like filters allow that.
Thanks again, for building and explaining.
