Hi Everyone, About a month back, I had asked if there was a way to automatically create links/ mail. I thought of it mostly cos I was using textile and would often do something like: "http://www.onghu.com":http://www.onghu.com to get it to work. I am now in the midst of updating the site that needs this, so I wrote up a couple of tags for it and I'm enclosing it here in case someone needs it. I'm sure the code can be made prettier and there's a lot more that can be done with this, but these meet my needs for now. If you add something, it would be good if you could let me know so that I can watch and learn. Cheers Mohit. ==== The Tags ==== desc %{ Renders a URL as a link. 'url' is the full URL (including http:// or ftp://) and 'descr' is the text that should be rendered as the title (for mouse over) and the link text. If 'descr' is not specified, 'link' is used. *Usage*: <pre><code><r:teao:autolink url="http://onghu.com"; descr="My Site" /></code></pre> } tag 'teao:autolink' do |tag| link = tag.attr['url'] descr = tag.attr['descr'] || link "<a href=\"#{url}\" title=\"#{descr}\">#{descr}</a>" end desc %{ Converts an email address into a link. 'url' is the email address (without mailto) and 'name' is the name that should be rendered as the title (for mouse over) and the link text. If 'name' is not specified, 'url' is used. *Usage*: <pre><code><r:teao:automail url="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" descr="Don't email" /></code></pre> } tag 'teao:automail' do |tag| link = tag.attr['url'] name = tag.attr['name'] || link "<a href=\"mailto:#{url}\"; title=\"#{name}\">#{name}</a>" end _______________________________________________ Radiant mailing list Post: [email protected] Search: http://radiantcms.org/mailing-list/search/ Site: http://lists.radiantcms.org/mailman/listinfo/radiant
