Going Crazy With Outlines
Ever since the first time I read Mark Pilgrim's brillant dive into mark, I've been mildly jealous of his 'outline' CSS based style. Well, not any more...
Taking advantage of some idle time, stuck in a Eurostar train in the so called 'Chunnel', I've decided to apply some of the techniques I developed for activeRenderer to my main weblog templates.
Rendering outlines in DHTML is actually rather easy, you can check out my templates: #homeTemplate.txt, #dayTemplate.txt and itemTemplate.txt, as well as my CSS style definitions, homeTemplate.css and outliner.css.
The next logical step would be to 'activePost' part of Radio's outlines to my weblog's home page. It doesn't look that difficult either, and I'll have some spare time next week, flying from Paris to Venice... To be continued.
