Here are Rob's Blog entries for April 2008.
Blog entries for other months can be found in the main blog index.
I should of posted this earlier. A couple of minutes from the office that well known graffiti artist Banksy has been at work.
Outside the entrance to the Royal Mail depot in Newman Street, just off Oxford Street in London, Banksy has painted "One Nation Under CCTV".
It's been snowing in Eastbourne today, so here are a few pictures of our road covered in snow.
I've been doing some work with Movable Type using the ExtraFields plugin recently.
One problem I had was offering an alternative if an extra field hadn't been set. It turns out that it's possible to nest an <MTElse> in the <MTIfExtraField> tag.
Here's an example. I have an extrafield called externalurl on an entry, if it exists I want to use that for the link, if not I want to use the entry's permalink.
<MTIfExtraField field="externalurl">
<$MTExtraFieldValue field="externalurl"$>
<MTElse>
<$MTEntryPermalink$>
</MTElse>
</MTIfExtraField>
This basically gives us the functionality of a <MTElseExtraField> tag.
