  14. Is there any way to hosted the "Summary post" script?? i've tried it in many way, but not work..
    (it only work if the jscript put in the xml files...:p)

    could anyone help me......??

  15. @bagoesky : you can copy the script between <script type='text/javascript'>
    ..........
    </script>
    put them in a file ,name it with a .js extension and upload it to a host that support hotlink (some hosts don't support hotlink )
    then ,place a line in your template file instead of the whole javascript code :
    <script src='link to your js file ' type='text/javascript'/>

    ReplyDelete
  16. This does not seem to work in IE8? But it works in firefox. Help?

    ReplyDelete
  17. hmm.. what do you mean about hotlink?? bcoz all of my js files that i've hosted on googlecode and fileave are work great; so i think the problem is not there...


    anyway, there are two script of your summary post isn't it?
    1. the summary.js in tag head (that i've try to hosted)
    2. the call back function in the xml code


    now... how about the "call back function" script, maybee that parts not recognize with the hosted summary post....


    well any idea about it??? and if you dont mind.. i hope you tested it too.. :p
    thanxs.
