@Jim JeffersHey JJ - Just FYI on the new developments, I noticed that the preview hung around if you didn't submit. Just closed out the preview modal. It was an easy fix of course. I just emptied out the #comment value and the preview html.

@Brandon Miller:

Hey JJ - I am implementing this in the CVB’s blog. So I had to make this work in IE also.

Rock on! Thanks Brandon! I'll push those changes into it very soon. I have a live preview option, extended comment box option, and a separation of the quote from the comment box (no html in the comment box) almost done so I'll put this fix in with that update over the weekend.

Hey JJ - I am implementing this in the CVB's blog. So I had to make this work in IE also. Just change each this.text to jQuery(this).text(). Great work by the way!

@Caolan:

On this page, under the heading ‘Designate Comment Authors’, the class ‘comment-author-name’ is quoted as simply ‘comment-author’

Thanks! Yes I fixed this just now based on your tip. My apologies.

Hi Jim,

Thanks for your comment on our podcast episode featuring your plugin, I just have one slight alteration to the documentation to suggest:

On this page, under the heading ‘Designate Comment Authors’, the class ‘comment-author-name’ is quoted as simply ‘comment-author’ in the first paragraph. Having used this class instead, the page threw up a javascript error and some strange behavior, but was easy to track down.

On the whole, great work

Hey Jim!
Thank you for your answer and sorry that it’s so hard to understand me, I think it’s because of my terrible english
Hmm, I don’t know how to describe my problem in an other way than I already did, so I can just ask you to visit my site. For example, look at this post: http://www.wireds.de/2009/01/blogparaden-und-gewinnspielauswertung
If you try to answer, the form becomes filled out correctly, but it’s not scrolling there (I integrated the scrolldown javascript file in the footer). And as I see at the moment, there are still problems with the comments to answer, the comment form gets just a

and that’s all (I followed your instructions to get the comments working so there are all the classes entry-content etc. integrated).
Sorry for this long comment and support question
Greatings, .wired
