...or perhaps you just want to quote dAmn chatter in your own journal skin?
updated on July 7th 2008
I've updated the look of the skin so it reflects the changed dAmn. Also included is code to replicate the 'more' popup window - with a working close button that hides it on hover.
If you want the old version, which looks like the previous version of dAmn, follow the old instructions.
Note that the position of the journal's title (the topic bar) will be off when viewing this in v5... v6 here we come!
__________________
This is dAmn #journal, a journal skin made in collaboration between `frozenpandaman who came up with the initial idea to make a journal based on the look of dAmn, and myself, `thespook , who took that idea and fleshed it out into working journal CSS.
After many days of work and the help of the following beta testers it's finally ready for public use
- ~Asphyziata
- ~vaniergt89
- =JurgenDoe
- =Stickmanwww
- ^Ikue
- `ginkgografix
- =popcorn-pops
- =masked-racoon
- =ashescry
One of the features of this journal skin is that it can emulate the look of dAmn chatter, whether you just want to post a quote, or if you want to make the entire journal look like it's straight out of dAmn. See this journal to get the idea.
To make it simpler to write journals like this, @sine-out and myself have written scripts you can use to import copied dAmn chatter.
- devart.koopseht.net/damnimport/ is my script. It's javascript based, and while not having any obvious bugs, it doesn't play nice with IE for now.
- devart.sineout.com/damnjournal/ is @sine-out 's handywork. It's PHP based, so it works in any browser.

In the mean time, it'd probably be a good idea to remove the link, because at the moment, it's not complete enough for even me to consider to use it, and well, I don't want you getting any flack because of my slowness.
I should have my importer finished within a few days, but yeah, it's not near 'roduction' completeness yet.

I was about to say it looked like it was working well enough to me, but then I ran into the bug that gobbles up the <p> tags
I've taken the link down from the description, and from the web copy of the instructions, but in the zip file I've added a note warning of the bugs at time of writing.
(I've also downloaded the source to see if I can spot the problem, if you don't mind my input)

Not at all, this is my first 'roject' as it were where I make actual and extensive use of regexes, so it's likely that my code is, err, less than optimal :B

You've seen the source of my script right? It's not like mine is any better

Well, I have fixed the
tag gobbling, so my importer is good enough that it can be linked again.
It's still not perfect, but it's significantly better than it was an hour ago.

Your code looks pretty tidy to me, but then again, I hardly know javascript, so I don't have a frame of reference :B

Think I could use that semi-transparent "dAmn #journal" for my new design on the bottom?

Sure I didn't save the file though, so if you wanted me to send it over I'll have to create it again...
