I got a little help with my perma-link problem on the discussion group. I forgot you can put arbitrary scripts between the <%%> tags. So you can write a script in there that will give you the link. But to get it to work for categories will be a bit of work.

Poop. Perma-links aren't as easy to fix as I thought. There's just one macro that spits out the html. So I'd have to go muck with my copy of Radio to fix it and I don't really want to do that. What would be better if there was another macro that returned the URL for an item. Then I could build a custom perma-link myself as part of the item template.

I found out something icky about Radio's default perma-link. It's a gif. Why is that a problem? When I drag it I'm dragging a gif, not the link. I want the link to drag so that I can drop it on Radio Poster's glossary and have it pop right in. Earlier today I tried to drop a perma-link into a glossary and it didn't take. Turns out it isn't my fault. Other weblogs have text for their perma-links so they are easy to drag-and-drop. Of course, the whole thing is easy to change, but most people aren't going to do that.

So it looks like Dave is still working on the OPML coffee mug. Cool. I can't wait till it ships.
