    11 Short Version:
     11= Short Version: =
    1212
    1313Adds a field to the create/update dialog box within the Visual post editor so that you can assign a class to the
    14 link you are creating.

    18 Long Version:

    2019This is a lot of code that doesn't do much.
     
    2524the dialog in question is created and modify that and the associated functions to my liking.  In doing so,
    2625I have learned quite a bit and also have a greater understanding of why this functionality is missing (or
    27 at least I have a theory).
     26at least I have a theory, see Known Limitations/Bugs).

    29 Limitations/Known bugs:
    3028
    31 When unlinking, the assigned class will not be removed.  Instead a span tag will be generated and the class will be
    32 applied to the span.  This is a bug with tinyMCE, see http://www.tinymce.com/develop/bugtracker_view.php?id=2022
    33 My best guess is that this is why styles are disabled and this functionality isn't present in the default
    34 add/edit link dialog.  So, when you unlink something, you'll have to go to the 'html' editor and manually
    35 remove the span tags, or simply leave them there but that may result in unpredictible behavior/styling.
