Comments inside the text

Hi,

When an entry has a lot of comments, it's a mess that is not very readable (with s9y or others blogging software). I have just seen a plugin for WP allowing to have general comments or comments fo a part of the text.

It's very impressive. An idea for Serendipity?

Cheers, Fabien

Hi!

This system could be easily implemented into Serendipity; even easier that it was for the author to implement into WordPress.

It could even be integrated as a template modification mostly.

So, who's willing? I'd love to see it. I'm quite sure that the developer will need to know javascript/ajax well.

Best regards,
Garvin

Heh, I think that is very, very bad example of ajax / javascript / comment usage :) But it is my opinion.

I already tested ... damn...
http://jquery.com/demos/

Someone hacked jquery already :) Just as I was pointing vulnerabilities of multiple layers of ajax-libraries :) This is really awesome :)

I was pointing that if you use lightbox / thickbox you have lots of overhead in code and if you put Yahooui / GWT there it is A LOT more. Perhaps accordion-boxes should be enough? They are in prototype / rico / moo.fx (jquery nowadays) already and all they need is wrapper.

Now as I am in this subject, can smarty handle pageloads in ajax? onload.loadData (xxx) etc.? And in which point it loads them? If not in the beginning I think template will get loaded and only after that javascript will get executed... hmmm...
