Q: Pop-up footnote bug

Hi everyone.

 

I'm been making EPUB 3 books and inserting footnotes along the text. iBooks displays this notes in a pop-up window and it works just fine. But now I'm facing what seems to be a bug. One particular note ended up on the first line of the page and it doesn't work. First, I thought it was some error in the code and I went to check. But the code was just like the others. Then, I tried this: I changed the font-size, on iBooks, and so the footnote jumped to another line; then just like magic, the footnote started to work!

 

It seems to me like the pop-up couldn't get enough space to show up. When it droped just a litle bit below (when the font-size was changed), the it worked. Does anyone ever faced this same problem? Is this really a bug? Is there any workaround?

 

Thanks in advance!
