Awesome Quotes

This is pretty awesome. Click on one of the [" "] icons in the comments of this blog page. Check out the effect. http://www.brandspankingnew.net/archive/2006/12/hohoho.html It would be pretty cool to do this in Vanilla. Anyone think they have the skillz?

  • Now that's really cool, now watch some "mental" wanker criticise it to kingdom come!
  • While working on an add-on for formating different event types in a Comment, I did see how to do that. Basically you want to tap into a database of quotes, pick one, and stick it at the top of your comment. Vanillacons is where I found out how to do this.
  • Are we talking about the same thing Jim?

    I thought dan39 was referring to the quick auto-scroll down effect?

  • I thought he was talking about the little quotes icon in each comment which would automatically quote that comment in your new comment you were about to make. I misunderstood where it was getting the quote from. Now I see. Sorry.
  • In theory, it should be pretty easy (for someone who knows about JS ;)) to retrofit any of the quote extensions with this capability. Although I can't do it myself, I'm sure that this would be almost trivial with JQuery's chaining abilities...
