blogthis!

devbobo · January 24, 2006

I have been thinking about doing this for awhile, so I went and did it...wrote a very quick interface to Blogspot....

addEvent(window, "load", addBlogLinks());

function addBlogLinks()
{
  var sClassName = document.body.className;
  var re1 = /singleImage /;
  var re2 = /loggedIn /;

  if (re1.test(sClassName) && re2.test(sClassName))
  {
     var objParent = document.getElementById('imageInfo');
     var objChild = document.createElement("a");
     var objText = document.createTextNode("blogthis!");
     objParent.appendChild(objChild);
     objChild.appendChild(objText);
     objChild.setAttribute("href", "javascript:BlogThis();")
  }

}

function BlogThis() 
{
  var imageLink = "";
  var imageHead = "";
  imageLink = "&lt;img border=0 src=\"" + document.getElementById('mainPhoto').src + "\"/&gt;";
  imageHead = document.getElementById('caption_top').firstChild.nodeValue;

  x=document;
  y=window;
  popw = y.open('http://www.blogger.com/blog_this.pyra?t=' + escape(imageLink) + '&u=' + '&n=' +  escape(imageHead),'bloggerForm','scrollbars=no,width=475,height=300,top=175,left=75,status=yes,resizable=yes');
  void(0);
}

So when you are logged in and displaying a singleImage page, a blogthis! link should appear in the ImageInfo box. Automatically picks up the image url (currently being view small,medium, large) and the image caption...probably won't work for pro accounts yet.

Could be some bugs, kinda late here

Hey, interesting. Why would't it work for pro accounts?

And, how about Wordpress?

Andy,

it's not a matter of it never working, but I haven't added to got to grab the copyprotected url.

yeah, i might look at Wordpress. This was a very quick hack, more proof of concept and would be better suited if I wrote it from scratch and didn't use blogger's pop-up window.

If you could do a version for Wordpress that would be awesome!
