Using Movable Type’s TrackBack with Radio Userland
Jeremy refers back to my response to his response to the OnLamp article, berating the fact that Radio doesn’t work with Movable Type’s TrackBack feature.
Well, I did a bit of digging and discovered David Watson’s post on how to make this work.
I tried it out, by inserting the following into the previous post:
<% scratchpad.s = tcp.httpClient (server:"jeremy.zawodny.com", path:"/mt/mt-tb.cgi?tb_id=43&url=http://www.tmtm.com/insanity/2002/07/14.html", ctFollowRedirects:"5"); string.httpResultSplit (scratchpad.s) %>
It seems to work, but seems to add multiple ‘pings’ to Jeremy’s trackback page. I’ll turn this into a radio macro once I discover how to work out what the URL of the current post will be, once created…
