Sure, this is doable with a few tricks. Here's the basic idea. Let me
know if you need more details:
[from]
Title: [text title][submit]
[box content]
[session target_fix blog.{=title}]
[sesson savedata title]
[session create {=content}]
[form]
[(search group=blog*)]
Cheers,
Dan
P.S. The fix on the end of target triggers the target command to strip
punctions (see commands.php). We could do space-to-hyphen here if we
wanted. Without the fix, spaces get converted to underscores in the
BOLTfixpageshortcuts function, and some punctuation triggers various
page name shortcuts. Or you get an invalid page name. Thinking about
it, those shortcuts could also be made configurable--see $rr1 and $rr2
in lines 1552-1553 in engine.php. That would be a nice hook into the
code.
