Hi,

I recently started using something called "Snap preview" (see: http://www.snap.com/about/spa1A.php).

It is a script that allows users to preview a link they might visit, so they can decide if they want to go there or not.

It is highly configurable as well (turning on or of previews for internal links, blocking links etc. etc..)

Officially it requires you to enter the javascript code into the header of your HTML however, before the <body> tag.

Since I use the theme plugin which allows each user to choose their own theme, this means I would need to edit each individual theme to include the code.

But some smart cookies already turned this option into a plugin for WordPress ( http://ajaydsouza.com/wordpress/plugins ... -anywhere/ ).

So I figured: there must be someone that can turn this into a S9y plugin

Hence this post: is there someone out here that thinks this might be a nice plugin to make?

Ps: I have to add that you can add it to a HTML-nugget (which I did) and it will work, but it actually is not the way it is supposed to work)...
Pps: I also use some feeds in the backend of S9y (i.e. the admin part), is there anyway that I can make it work there as well?

Nice script! You can do this by using the html head nugget plugin. I did this for testing on my blog:

taeglichanders.de

Just copy the code from the snap site and paste it into the head nugget plugin. One Problem still exists. If you have e.g. a youtube video near the links, the video overlays the snap window.

No: thats not your fault: I edited my post probably while you where replying

I have noticed the same "bug" and have submitted a question about that.
I think it is normal behaviour actually for such a script, but maybe there is a fix for it???

Can it be the same problem like flash-videos and lightbox?

Uh, you don't need a html nugget for a favicon? You just put it in the webroot?

As far as the code goes: you need to add the specific info for your site etc... The instructions are quite clear (I think)?
