Re: wet_linkinfo: Extract a managed link's properties
Hi Robert, sorry it took me awhile to get a look at this. Am I correct in thinking you’d need to use this twice or more to get a link on the page?
<a href="<txp:wet_linkinfo id="3" type="url" />" title="<txp:wet_linkinfo id="3" type="description" escape="html" />">
<txp:wet_linkinfo id="3" type="linkname" escape="html" />
</a>Offline

Looks terrible, uh? I might have to add a form capability…

Re: wet_linkinfo: Extract a managed link's properties
I haven’t looked closely at the code, but it also seems like queries could add up quickly if each instance of the tag produces one query.
I remember ajw_clean_feeds having an attribute switch that could output either an URL or an autodiscovery link, depending on the attribute value. Perhaps something like that could be used here? Of course, upm_image incorporates both attribute switches and form capability. I guess there’s several ways to solve this.
