Ask me again next week.
I've been (because I had to) upgrading the cf app I use as localhost. Among
all the other things it does is do all my bookmarking. Last week I added in
an HTML & XML export function to it so it automagically updates my links
page at http://www.intrafoundation.com/links.html.
Right now it grabs all the meta data (description, keywords, author, email,
etc) via CFHTTP and lets me search against it and other nice things.
I've started to add in a little code to rip out the email and url's from the
pages as well as the meta data, etc. But that's not working yet.
Sec.... threw a zip of localhost.jun.2000.zip on the freeware page. It's a
place to start with. If you like yellow. ;-)
