comment_permlink aka <txp:comment_permlink>

As per the Textbook: <txp:comment_permlink>

The comment_permlink tag is either a single or a container tag which is used to return the permanent link of the article comment being displayed. The container tag wraps the text assigned to the link.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to function as a single tag (in the way txp:permlink does). It is theoretically possible this is by design, but in case it isn’t…

I have provided a fix to the respective function ‘comment_permlink’ in taghandlers.php:

function comment_permlink($atts, $thing=NULL)
{
	global $thisarticle, $thiscomment;

	assert_article();
	assert_comment();

	extract($thiscomment);
	extract(lAtts(array(
		'anchor' => ($thing===NULL)?'':empty($thiscomment['has_anchor_tag']), 
	),$atts));

	$dlink = permlinkurl($thisarticle).'#c'.$discussid;

	if ($thing===NULL)
		return $anchor?'c'.$discussid:$dlink;

	$thing = parse($thing);

	$name = ($anchor ? ' id="c'.$discussid.'"' : '');

	return tag($thing,'a',' href="'.$dlink.'"'.$name);
}

The function remains unchanged when the tag is used as a container, but if used singly it either returns the plaintext URL or (if anchor=“1”) the comment ID anchor, e.g. c000234

Re: comment_permlink aka <txp:comment_permlink>

To achieve the same effect (without changing behaviour of comment_permlink) I suppose one can do this:

<a href="<txp:permlink />#c<txp:comment_id />" ></a>

That ‘workaround’ works just fine. Sorry for wasting everyone’s time. Case closed. :-}
