TagClouder

[undyingking]

I've added a feature to the TagClouder such that it now offers you the raw HTML to paste into your own page, etc. Unfortunately it comes out like this:

---

books car

Get your own tag cloud from the UKG TagClouder!

---

Presumably LJ is stripping out the <style> ... </style> for security reasons or some such... any thoughts for ways round this? I could go back to doing it with text attributes I suppose, but that seems a bit retrograde...
Any thoughts about this or further improvements welcome!

---

Edit: now a trial with no internal style spec, but linking to an external stylesheet:
books car

Get your own tag cloud from the UKG TagClouder!

Bah, no better.

---

Edit: now a trial with inline style:
books car

Get your own tag cloud from the UKG TagClouder!

oho! -- that looks more promising. Unfortuatnely it involves hacking into the <a> tag, which I'm keen to avoid doing as it will require all manner of hideous regexping. And it this way really any better than using <font>?

Err, how?

You need to put <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" etc into the page header to do that. Unless I've missed a wonderfully useful trick somewhere!

And whilst you might be able to reconfigure (I don't know: I've not got to grips with LJ's styling modules) your page style to do that, it's not going to affect mine.

In FF at least the link doesn't have to be in the header, you can put it in the body. Which surprised me I must say, but I thought I might as well try it and it seems to be the case.
