We are now going to take care of the Comments temlate. This template is the equivalent of the "Entry Templates" we
have build for the Main page, exept that instead of displaying entries, we display comments, using the
!!comment!! variable.
Here is an exemple of what you could type in the "Comment" template: |
|
<table width="300" bgcolor="#C1BFEE">
<tr><td>!!comment!!</td></tr>
</table> |
| |
|
| The result would look something like... |
|
|
| You may of course display the date and time the comment was posted by inserting the appropriate variables. |
|
<table width="300" bgcolor="#C1BFEE">
<tr><td>!!comment!!</td></tr>
<tr><td>Posted on !!monthdigit!!.!!monthday!!.!!year!!
at !!hours12!!:!!minutes!! !!ampm!!</td></tr>
</table> |
| |
|
| This is a comment. |

|
|
| In order to display the name of the comment's author, you need to insert either the !!name!! variable, which simply displays
the author's name, or the !!authorsmart!! variable, which displays the author's name, linking to his/her e-mail if he/she
mentioned one. |
|
<table width="300" bgcolor="#C1BFEE">
<tr><td>!!comment!!</td></tr>
<tr><td>Posted by on !!monthdigit!!.!!monthday!!.!!year!!
at !!hours12!!:!!minutes!! !!ampm!!</td></tr>
<tr><td>By !!authorsmart!!</td></tr>
</table> |

|
| Now, since we will include this template inside another table later, we need to put a
<tr><td> at the begining, and a
</td></tr> at the end of our code: |
|
<tr><td><table width="300" bgcolor="#C1BFEE">
<tr><td>!!comment!!</td></tr>
<tr><td>Posted by on !!monthdigit!!.!!monthday!!.!!year!!
at !!hours12!!:!!minutes!! !!ampm!!</td></tr>
<tr><td>By !!authorsmart!!</td></tr>
</table></td></tr> |
| |
|
| We're done! All we need to do now is to include this into the "Entry main page" template by inserting the !!dispcom!! variable
inside a html table: |
|
<html>
<head>
<title>My Upsaid web log - Entry page</title>
</head>
<body>
<table width="400" bgcolor="#D0F0EB">
<tr><td><u>!!title!!</u></td></tr>
<tr><td>!!body!!</td></tr>
<tr><td align="right">Posted at !!hours12!!:!!minutes!! !!ampm!!</td></tr>
</table>
<table>
!!dispcom!!
</table>
</body>
</html> |
| |
|
| This is a title |
| This is the entry body |

| All we need to do now is add the "Post a comment" form, and we will be done with the Entry page. |
