Thanks. Definitely itchy. (02)
Overnight I had a couple of thoughts: (03)
There needs to be a way to pass some info to the wikihtml viewer: (04)
- Datadir, so that pageExists can be looked up correctly
- Scriptname, so that you can pass an arbitrary URL for the
link of the nid (rather than the current page). This is
necessary to ensure that the purple number goes with the
permalink of an entry, rather than the page that is currently
displaying the entry. (05)
Any ideas on how best to do that? (06)

Cuz purple is k3w1 (08)
I think we can probably address this issue by using the title
attribute in the href, like so: (09)
<a class="nid" href="/~cdent/mt/archives/000030.html#nid000003A"
title="000003A">#</a> (010)
That causes a little floating thingie when you mouseover, at
least in recent IE and Mozilla on XP. (011)
That seems like that could be a configurable thing. (012)
