ako_cssParse
Parse TXP tags in CSS

Ok, so this is still very much in it’s infantile stages, but I figured I should release it to the world and see what you all think.

The usage is basically like <code><txp:css /></code>, the only difference being it uses the attribute “name” instead of “n,” which is something I’m going to change for the next release, but I’m just too tired to be bothered right now.

Also, parsing article related tags doesn’t yet work. If any of you devs wish to take a look and offer some ideas or what not, that’d be great. In any event, it’s something I’m looking into for future releases and I do wish to get it into this plugin. Yeah.

I tried an if_section in the css to change a font but it didn’t work. The font in every section changed and not to the font I set. Am iI using this in the right way? Your plugin has some exciting possibilities. Thanks you, Lee.

Hope you got your sleep :)

Hmmm…. Thinking about it, I’m not sure whether this should work or not. I think that I’d need to pass it a section variable, because as is, it’s not actually in a section (I don’t think, at least). So, I suppose that this will go on the list of things to improve for v0.2.

Awesome!!!!

I am in the middle of moving right now, but once I settle in, this will definitely get a test drive.

Cheers for the fast turn-around! :)

Nice work ako, this one was really needed.

Just installed it. Noticed something weird..

Under the plugin description it reads:

“An easy way of letting people add your posts to various social bookmarking sites.”

Will keep you posted if I find any other kinks

Ooops. Must have let that one slip. I’ll update it when I get back to my computer sometime tomorrow (I hope).

Also, while I’m at it, is anyone else finding any odd bugs / quirks with this plugin?

Ace of Dubs · 2006-07-05 14:00:36

Strange things happening here. I got the plugin installed and turned on and have linked to my CSS via <code><txp:ako_cssParse name=“main”/></code> and it seems to work EXCEPT none of my images are loading. I get all the text formatting and background colors but it’s almost as if my images are turned off (which they aren’t)

Hope this is an easy fix

Sidenote: My images are not in the “images” folder. I have a separate directory called “img” which is used for all my interface graphics. Using regular <code><txp:css n=“main” /></code> and it works just fine…

Odd… What’s the URL?

I am developing the site right now in normal CSS mode with a million things to do. If you like, we can set up a time to IM and I can revert it to plugin mode so we can troubleshoot it.

trying this out:

Some symptoms here:

Throws tag errors if not in individual article mode

Doesn’t seem to get the attribute value for n=xxx calls.

generates a garbled duplicate output of the href attribute right below:

Example:

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen" href="http://mysite1.dev/textpattern/css.php?s=lightroom" />

 http://mysite1.dev/?ako_cssParse=true&amp;ako_cssParseName=test&amp;ako_cssSec=lightroom

Also: The documentation is undetermined:

Can I mix tags and CSS in the style sheet ?
In case I use regular CSS as well, does it lead to a conflict, if I use the normal CSS tag ?

regards
