Getting rid of blog posts in iframes

[kenshiro-o]

Hi Jared,

I really like your approach to implementing a simple blogging solution in node.js but I don't understand why you have chosen to display blog posts in iframes. That's just unnecessary. I'll work on displaying the posts in a normal div from my fork of your project and will try to integrate the changes into the your master branch.

That's a great point you put up, I've been trying to think of a solution for quite a while, but new things just keep coming up. As long as your method still integrates the niceditor, then I would be happy to see what you hack together.

Hi Jared,

I spent a couple of hours this week rewriting quite a few parts of Node2Blog to improve the layout (adios iframes, etc.) and the code quality (adios global variables, etc.). I still need to work on a few more features (e.g. edit and delete post on admin page, + showing comments) but you can already have a look at my blog (http://kenshiro.me/) which uses the code from my forked Node2Blog (https://github.com/kenshiro-o/Node2Blog).

Let me know what you think!

Very good! The code's really robust. There has been an RSS feed added to the blog design. It's in the blog.js file I believe. Tell me when your done, this would be a great new version of node2blog.

Ok I'll try to have a look during the week then. I may be busy so this feature may only be available sometime next week I believe. Users are now able to add comments on the blog so give it a try:).

RSS is now working as well (try hitting: http://kenshiro.me/rss.xml). Didn't take much time to implement actually!
I still need to sort out editing and deleting of posts but I believe I am almost there...
