My diary, <date>

Trimlines will eradicate useless empty lines from this template instead of passing them on to the reading browser. Just a cosmetic thing, and not a feature of this module, really -- it's a generic Roxen Macro Language (RXML) tag. the of , - These define two RXML macros or "user-defiuned tags" which will be used later on in the template. The first is constituted of some tags added by the module. To get more info about a tag, try in this template. My diary, <date> See how we use our freshly defined tag here? It's not the only time... This is a stylesheet marker that will remove the underline from links, which IMHO looks a whole lot better. You may or may not agree.

This will show the date when the entire diary was latest changed, and a link to the date that was changed then. Try the help argument for more info.

This will make a link panel with navigation to the first entry present, the previous entry, next and the most recent entry: First Previous Next Last et cetera could be used if you'd prefer to use images for these links.

Month navigation panel: <= April 1999 => The panel of dates in this month; something like: Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24

Similar to the month navigation panel, this does basically the same for the years: 1998 - 1999 - 2000 Yes -- the module is Y2K safe, but there is still trouble from year 2036 onwards. Hopefully that won't matter to you. :-)

Yet another navigation panel, showing all months of this year like this: January May September February June October March July November April August December

Get rid of these dates! Show a list of all dates! Line up all date entries, in three columns, using some conditional code to allow for this list to be switched on or off as wanted. (using standard RXML features)

A suitable header for the diary entry might be its date. Insert the diary text for this day. We turn off the trimlines feature for this tag, since it might break the

-formatted text excerpts, when present in diary entries.

Perhaps you'd like to brag about this cool module doing all the layout work for you, by showing the "real" source for a page served by it? :-) This can easily be done with the raw feature. A javascript link that toggles this prestate for you could look like this:

Use the source, Luke! Sure, this is a bit overkill, but it should work perfectly. :-) I used my "prestate toggler", slightly modified. It only requires javascript 1.0, and should work on any browser suppporting that and the view-source: "protocol" (ie Netscape? :-).
