 Url into textarea |
 |
Hi guys,
I was thinking about how to add a textarea where users can copy a link code from a textarea and paste it to their websites,blogs,etc.
I have this into my template,in my index and another pages and it works:
 |  | <form>
<textarea cols="25" rows="5" class="form">
<a href="<?php $PHP_SELF; ?>" target="_blank"><b>MYWEBSITE</b>NEWS TITLE APPEARS HERE</a>
</textarea></form> |
But how can we add this into my template using CN?
I have tried many ways to get the URL visitor is reading into the textarea and still dont work.
Understand what I mean?
best regards!

Just put the {title} or whatever else you want in the <textarea> in the <textarea>, it will translate properly. Did you try it?

Put this in your template:
| | <textarea>{link=home/post}</textarea> |
Working great.

I want to get something like this (when the user copy from the textarea where the link code is shown):
| | <a href="http//www.site.com/news/news-title.html">New title</a>
|
Hope you understand.
best regards!

FI-DD is right that's all you need to do but from experience I can help you to tweak that so it's a little cooler. For example, lots of sites have it auto select the code when you click it. Add this:
| | onFocus="this.select()" |
or in other words change:
| | <textarea><a href="{link=home/post}">{title}</a></textarea> |
to:
| | <textarea onFocus="this.select()"><a href="{link=home/post}">{title}</a></textarea> |
I can also tell you from experience that you probably don't want to use " or quote marks inside of a textarea.. instead use ' or apostraphes.. So, change the previous code to:
| | <textarea onFocus="this.select()"><a href='{link=home/post}'>{title}</a></textarea> |
Now you should be golden. You can add 'rows' and 'cols' to specify specific size..

thank you guys, it works gr8!
Scottdallas, you told me to add this:
| | <textarea onFocus="this.select()"><a href='{link=home/post}'>{title}</a></textarea> |
But I use " to get doubles quotes and not simple in the URL , so i have this:
| | <textarea onFocus="this.select()"><a href="{link=home/post}">{title}</a></textarea> |
working gr8 now,
thnx a lot.
