[Gmod-help] GFF3 file uploads

Thank you!

     One more question regarding uploading files that are readable by 
gbrowse instances.  I am creating a balloon that appears on hover, and I 
do see that I can refer to individual features names, start sites, end 
sites, landmark, and the source by using variables such as $name, 
$start, $end, $class, and $source.  However, I am unable to refer to 
self-created attributes in the ninth column of the gff3 file.  For 
example, if in the ninth column I have

Sequence=ATCGAT

and I put $sequence into the display part of balloon hover, then it just 
displays "$sequence".  Is there any way to work around this and display 
self created attributes?

Also, is it  possible to embed an image into the balloon itself?

I also want to make sure you keep in mind that these are just gff3 files 
that I am uploading to a plasmodb gbrowse - I am not hosting the gbrowse 
myself.

Thanks again,

Rohan Bansal
