Life as I find it

The whole mission is to get Digg working for each post in this blog and hopefully, if it runs well, on every blog I have here.

The tiny little bit of button in question is this one:

If you notice, what I have done here besides showing you which button it is, is uploaded the image into this post, so that I can now have a url to use when I need to use it on my blog.

Then, I go to my template file, and click “edit html”.

I find the line that says:

< class= "post-footer-line post-footer-line-3">

(without the “/” and space between “<" and "p") and add: < href="http://www.blogger.com/%22http://digg.com/submit?phase=3&url=%22%20+%20data:post.url" target="_blank">< alt="DiggIt!" src="http://www.blogger.com/The%20url%20I%20will%20be%20getting%20from%20the%20image%20above">< /a>

before it (without the spaces between “<" and the next character to follow). But we want the coding to be clean, so we substitute the & in the above code and replace it with: &-a-m-p-; without the hyphens. I need to break these bits of code, or what you will see is this: & or nothing at all in the example above. This should do the trick me thinks. If it doesn't, of course I'll figure it out and return with updates. update: Uh….. its not working with the url I get from this page. Trying to fix that. I guess it will work if I host it elsewhere, but lemme see if it can happen as it is, or I will work with the CSS and a text link. Most bloggers don’t have image hosting facilities, so there must be another way of doing it.

Update 2:I guess blogger doesn’t allow “hot linking” even to itself. I just thought that since we can upload an image in a post and use it for our profile, I thought we could do it here too If anyone figures this out, do let me know.
