I'm using the Glossary module for something similar, although it's not really intended for that.

Hello crocodyl,

CCK to the rescue! Create a field for each type of reference you need for the content type you are using.

Using contemplate http://drupal.org/project/contemplate or by customizing http://jodyhamilton.net/node-theming-field-deconstructing-node-content-drup al-5 the relevant .tpl file in your theme, you can make those fields present on your node exactly how you want them.

Good luck,

I looked at all of the modules but could not find one that offers this specific functionality, has anyone seen this implemented on a Drupal site? If so, could you provide links?

Sure, have a look at http://dev1.cai.org/node/140. So far I'm still in development but I guess you get the idea. Hover your mouse over the words JAMES 5:16 and the text will pop up courtesy Glossary & jtooltips module (it's hard to read right now but a couple of changes to the CSS easily fixes that). If you tick the right box it also becomes a link to a page which lists all your sources in alphabetical lists. The definition (text) is maintained in the taxonomy.

I think this is a good solution if you are quoting exactly the same sources on different pages, and if you like the pop-up effect.

However, you might altervatively like to use one of these modules instead: http://drupal.org/project/footnotes http://drupal.org/project/citation_filter

What functionality do you require that they don't provide?

Regards, John.

Can I look at your site? What is the URL?
