Has anyone developed a bookmarklet that will allow a user to post on the News module? Many blog packages have this function already. Has someone done this? It is really the only thing I miss in Xoops. I like to be able to right click (or click a bookmarklet) and post something I see online on the fly.

Any insight?

Sorry, I'm not up with the world of blog. How does what you've describe differ from the comments system? Any examples?

what he describes is a bookmark comprised of javascript that when accessed from a browser lets you create a post directly, without having to open a new window. Many times the bookmark will also pre-fill information about the page you are curently looking at to speed up entry. Blog applications such as Wordpress include these bookmarks (called bookmarklets) with their application. I too would love to see this feature added to the XOOPS news module.

Why limit it to the news mod?

Yes I agree this would be a good thing. My website was a wordpress blog before I installed Xoops. But XOOPS offers so much more I don't mind being without it for now.

Wow, great responses already. So this is not something that anyone has developed thus far, then. I will look into it, although my coding skills suck. But maybe someone can do a beter job than I.
