Kinda cool and very helpful to anyone without the acronyms database memorised.
I notice it doesn't pick up the acronyms in people's signatures though which is where a lot of the acronyms live. Can that functionality be added?

Doesn't work on sigs I take it? Would be nice if it did.
Nope, still have no idea.

Edit....no hover over but links work. Very nice.
I don't think the links were there directly after I posted. But that is cooooool.

Ahh that'll be because the page has to refresh to be able to parse the content, and it doesn't reload the page when you post....
however anyone other than the poster will see them fine, and the poster after a page reload

But where would you link SCTOMA to? A pic of a pinball machine on fire?
That was exactly the pic I found
I noticed it in a post I forget, but where someone was saying "I met blah blah in the place that had a pinball machine whatever whatever blah blah and I got drunk, but it was great" (what they actually said made more sense than that). Anyway, "met" became MET (Metallica) But anyway, I think this is a cool feature for newbies here. Did our contributions help pay for some module to help this, or have you been busy coding Paul?

No, a tiny amount of the contributions to the site paid for the Add-on, plus around 4-5 hours whilst I've been incapacitated helped me to build up a spreadsheet with all the info on, which I transferred across
I can add links to anything else too on here. I was considering Technical Terms, however wasn't sure if that would be needed and also if it would be overkill!
Examples would be NIB, SDTM etc etc
