WebWord Weblog Posting

Posting Date: June 30, 2002
 

WebWord Comment -- Please do me a favor. Click in the Search box and the Submit News boxes ("Enter URL . . ." and "Who to Credit?") in the left hand navigation of this page. I added some JavaScript to them to make them a little bit easier to use. Let me know if they blow up or cause you any pain. Thanks for the help.

 

  

Reader Comments...
 

I forgot to add one important comment. I found the code to do this over at How Stuff Works, which has a ton of useful information.

Of course, we all know that it should be "Whom to credit", not "who". :p

A funny thing happens when you click the "credit" input box when nothing has been entered into the URL box. And then try clicking in the URL box. I won't ruin your surprise. ;)

MadMan, I know about the Flip Flop. It doesn't seem "bad" to me.

I didn't notice a flip-flop when clicking the "credit" box, then clicking the "url" box. All I noticed was that when I clicked into the "url" box, that emptied out and the "credit" box displayed its "who to credit?" message again. That is what is supposed to happen, right? Everything seemed to work just fine to me.
