Hi,

just noticed that it's not easily possible to generate a link to a specific comment without displaying the title. I wanted to display the comment in the recently modified area with e.g. a [more] link. <% this.link text="[more]" %> in the item skin renders incorrect urls for comments, using a / instead of a #.

and, <% this.url %> for comments has a small typo, using twice the prefix and no suffix:

function url_macro(param) { res.write(param.prefix); res.write(this.story.href() + "#" + this._id); res.write(param.prefix); }

i slightly edited your post once again to make the macro tags readable for us. you (and certainly anybody else coping with displaying macros or html as is and not as processed markup) should be careful to encode the < and > brackets as html entities, ie. &lt; and &gt; resp. sorry for that inconvenience but otherwise it's pretty dodgy to read such postings.

but now for some answers: i tried to reproduce what you described above at tobi.antville.org and i think it works even better than i expected. but maybe i did not quite get what troubles you? now i see the problem (did not have a comment in the recmod section before).

okay, this should be fixed (even in the current antville snapshot where the problem is solved somehow by the new url scheme however i get a java.lang.NullPointerException...)

concerning the double prefix output, this is in fact a bug which is already fixed but not updated here at antville.org.
