Free Nodelet Hack: Quick /msg to current node's author

For the "personal use only" option, you can do what you're proposing via the Free Nodelet.

I have the following bit of code in my Free Nodelet. It makes a text box pre-loaded with a link to the current node; when you hit <enter> in the box, it sends a /msg to the author of the current node.

<form method="post" action="?" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlenco
+ded">
<input type="hidden" name="_redir" value="`id`">
<input type="hidden" name="node_id" value="`author_id`">
<input type="hidden" name="op" value="message">
<input type="hidden" name="replyto" value="user">
<input type="hidden" name="sendto" value="`author_name`">
<label for="replytotext">/msg&nbsp;[`author_name`|author]</label>
<input type="text" name="replytotext" size=40 maxlength=255 value="re:
+ &#91;id://`id`] - ">
<input type="hidden" name="sexisgood" value="submit">
</form>

I also have another one just like this but which sends me a /msg.

For more ideas, see Free Nodelet Settings, and the three threads linked there; they explain how the Free Nodelet works and present numerous examples.

We're building the house of the future together.
