Silverlight tag cloud

Updated to version 1.1



changes are:

• have made the id of the element that the cloud is created parameter driven (see feCloudElementId) below in Javascript


• click on a label now shows a simple pop-up selections of posts, clicking on the first item will show all posts with that label, other entries take you direct to the post


• Changed the background sphere to be silver rather than yellow - big change ;-)


• mousing over a label now shows its co-occurances visually with lines

To insert into your blog use (under dashboard, layout, edit html, ensure that expand widget templates is checked).

Find the following:

      <div id='sidebar-wrapper'>
        <b:section class='sidebar' id='sidebar' preferred='yes'>

insert widget here

<b:widget id='Label2' locked='false' title='Dynamic Tag Cloud' type='Label'>
<b:includable id='main'>
 <b:if cond='data:title'>
   <h2><data:title/></h2>
 </b:if>
 <div class='widget-content' id='feCloud' style='text-align: center;'/>
 <script src='http://www.figmentengine.com/tagCloud/feCloudv1.1.js' type='text/javascript'/>
 <script type='text/javascript'>
  var feCloudElementId = 'feCloud';
  var feCloudFeedAddress = 'http://feedproxy.google.com/FigmentEngine';
  var feCloudNavigateFormat = 'http://blog.figmentengine.com/search/label/{0}';
  var feCloudSize = 400;
  feTagCloudLoad(feCloudElementId, feCloudFeedAddress, feCloudNavigateFormat, feCloudSize, feCloudSize);
 </script>
</b:includable>
</b:widget>

In order to start using this version, you need to change your javascript to reference v1.1 of the js file, and add an additional parameter of the id of cloud element. This should allow you to host multiple clouds on the same page, or at least give more flexibility about the cloud id.
