Easteregg: Activate links to Nodelet documentation (update: patch)

(Beats me why this feature is display:none by default...)

Put this

a.nodelethead-annot { display:inline; float:left; font-size:smaller; padding-left:0.2em}

or this

a.nodelethead-annot { display:inline; float:right; font-size:smaller }

into your On-Site CSS Markup in Display Settings

and be surprised to see a little ? appearing in the nodelet titles, conveniently linking to the corresponding documentation.

DISCLAIMER: I'm no web-designer, if you have better CSS-suggestions, shoot away. :)

update

I found the Common CSS settings and filed a patch to activate this by globally by default.

I love this. Unfortunately, not all nodelets have documentation (e.g. About the Chatterbox). Update: It seems the Chatterbox nodelet is documented under About the Chatterbox Nodelet. Similarly, "Information", "Find Nodes", and "Leftovers" need the "Nodelet" appended to get the actual title. "What Links Here", on the other hand, has no documentation I could find. `map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]\|\|0,1}[\\|\|{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^ARGV,3]`	[reply] [d/l]

The problem is in the code here Nodelet Container combined with inconsistent naming convention. All docs have the form `"About the $NODE_NAME Nodelet"` but the code doesn't append " Nodelet". `24: my $about = qq(<a href="?node=About the $title" class="nodelethead-annot"><sup>?</sup></a>);` But if the Nodelet's name contains a " Nodelet" at the end it works again ... so the link for "Domain Nodelet" works the link for "Sections" doesn't LOL to cite harangzsolt33!!! @gods: That's not easy to patch ... renaming some sitefaqlet nodes consistent to nodelet name? (the right thing) cryptic code which adds "Nodelet" only when missing? (the practical thing) Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Provided a patch for the "quick&dirty" solution. Had to write a my own test (as usual) use strict; use warnings; for my $title (<DATA>) { chomp $title; # --- patch start # nodelet names don't end always on "nodelet" my $about_title = "About The $title Nodelet"; $about_title =~ s/Nodelet Nodelet$/Nodelet/i; # fix inconsistent +naming convention my $about = qq(<a href="?node=$about_title" class="nodelethead-ann +ot"><sup>?</sup></a>); # --- patch end print qq(<li><a href="?node=$about_title"> Doc for $title</a>\n) } __DATA__ Notifications Chatterbox Other Users What Links Here Sections Information Find Nodes Leftovers Voting Booth Personal Nodelet Function Nodelet Keyword Nodelet CPAN nodelet Node Status Node navigator Nodelet Nodelet Daily Best Weekly Best Monthly Best Tick tock Domain Nodelet Free Nodelet Settings Nodelet Log In Notices Slashdot nodelet HackerNews nodelet [download] Doc for Notifications Doc for Chatterbox Doc for Other Users Doc for What Links Here Doc for Sections Doc for Information Doc for Find Nodes Doc for Leftovers Doc for Voting Booth Doc for Personal Nodelet Doc for Function Nodelet Doc for Keyword Nodelet Doc for CPAN nodelet Doc for Node Status Doc for Node navigator Doc for Nodelet Nodelet Doc for Daily Best Doc for Weekly Best Doc for Monthly Best Doc for Tick tock Doc for Domain Nodelet Doc for Free Nodelet Doc for Settings Nodelet Doc for Log In Doc for Notices Doc for Slashdot nodelet Doc for HackerNews nodelet Update expanded test to cover all known default nodelets.

IMHO it's a typo in the HTML see About the Chatterbox Nodelet Cheers Rolf _{(addicted to the Perl Programming Language :) see Wikisyntax for the Monastery}	[reply]

Beats me why this feature is display:none by default Probably because too many of the linked-to pages are missing, so too many broken links.	[reply]
