I followed the instructions on Jake's weblog for creating a blogroll here on DHRB. I'm using the same outline I use to edit the leftlinks on Scripting News. Let's see if it works. It worked, but appeared in the wrong place. Now I have to tweak up the template. Back in a bit.
OK. Now it appears in the correct place. I'm going to use some CSS styles too.
Feedback to Jake:
- The default value of the processMacros boolean should be false. There's a small breakage issue on this, but the security issue is more important. People will incorporate outlines from other sources. Including a boolean was a good idea. But people should have to turn it on, to cause them to think about the source they are including.
- Plan for an ehancement that, if you link to a file whose name ends with .opml, it's somehow included in the blogroll.
- What happened to the white-on-orange XML button for the blogroll outline?
