XStandard XHtml Code Templates
I am just testing out XStandard's ability to add xhtml code templates. For instance, I have a the template file _image_border.cfm that has the code:
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" class="imageborder"> | |
<tr> | |
<td width="50%" rowspan="3"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="nw"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="n"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="ne"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td width="50%" rowspan="3"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
</tr> | |
<tr> | |
<td class="w"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="c"> | |
<img src="about:blank" /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="e"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
</tr> | |
<tr> | |
<td class="sw"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="s"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
<td class="se"> | |
<br /> | |
</td> | |
</tr> | |
</table> |
And using that, I can automatically insert more complex layouts like the image below that has the drop-shadowy border.
All code templates are organized into a single directory (by my choice) and are available in a directory menu for ease of use. Every day, I am finding XStandard to be a more and more powerful editor for my own content management system (CMS). Right now, I am hooking directly into my database for links to my blog entries and snippets. I have directories of special and foreign characters. I can upload images through XStandard and integrate them with my own file management system. It's pretty freakin' cool! Don't you with you had a little more XStandard.com in your site?
