Updated Comments Template

OK, here is an updated version of the sidebar comments (for use in Blogger templates), but won't break with double quotes:




That works better. Basically I'm using a textarea here to feed in the comment itself. A textarea's value is freefrom and easily accessible by javascript (and easily made invisible by CSS). So it eliminates the double quote bug completely.

Oh yeah, I got mad skills.

I'm currently not using comment bodies because they can contain HTML. If there is a <i> tag in the snippet of the comment used in the sidebar that isn't closed, then it propagates through the rest of the sidebar below that. Ideas?

you might try putting a gratiutous table tags in between each comment. I don't think most browsers render such style tags across tables (certainly within them though)
