I have a new macro that i'd like to throw into the weblog.vm file. It displays an html comment which is used for trackback auto-discovery. The idea is that above each entry you would put #showTrackbackAutodiscovery($entry) and you get this nice little html comment.
When you have these embedded in the page then you can use a scriptlet to find them and auto populate the data for doing a trackback. A scenerio would be ... I browse over to Dave's new post about Roller 2.0 screenshots and want to leave a trackback, so I hit my scriptlet and it automatically finds the trackback info and prepopulates a form which I can use to post to my weblog. I have used this a number of times with MovableType and it's very convenient. Anyone see any problems with this? #** * Display a trackback auto-discovery comment for a WeblogEntry. **# #macro( showTrackbackAutodiscovery $entry ) <!-- <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#"; xmlns:trackback="http://madskills.com/public/xml/rss/module/trackback/"; xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/";> <rdf:Description rdf:about="$absBaseURL$entry.permaLink" trackback:ping="#showTrackbackURL($entry)" dc:title="$entry.title" dc:identifier="$absBaseURL$entry.permaLink" dc:subject="$entry.category.name" dc:description="$entry.title" dc:creator="$entry.website.user.userName" dc:date="$entry.pubTime" /> </rdf:RDF> --> #end -- Allen
