So I was cruising my del.icio.us links and getting frustrated with the complete lack of stylizing ability. I was for a long time thinking of just making something myself that does the same thing but never got around to it.
Until now that is.
I created an completely ASP based tag could function that will parse through your tags (be it for links, articles or anything that has space separated tags) and display them in alphabetical order, with size representing the number of items tagged with that tag.
Here is the code for the ASP functions: Click for code
To call it, just call it like any other function:
<%=tagCloud("links_base","")%>
Hope you all like this and have some use for it. If you do find it useful, please let me know.
Cheers
that’s grand, i’m just in the process of using it on my own blog – but others may need to be aware that the function SingleSorter which is used in this itself needs to be sourced from http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/demos/bubblesort.asp
Glad you like it. Its pretty handy and it can be extended and tweaked to make it more del.icio.us like. I thought of adding groups but that just didn’t appeal to me. I like things simple.
