General

Internet Explorer for Windows does not support the <abbr> element that should be used for proper markup of abbreviations. The solution is based on one simple fact: even though IE ignores the element itself, other elements nested in the <abbr> work fine. This script wraps the content of the <abbr> with <span>, set its title and class attribute and the <abbr> tag behaves like it should.
