\n\nJust a day after 1.02<\/b>, I've released version 1.03<\/b> of my “file-based\nposts” plugin<\/a> for WordPress. It still<\/span> allows you to compose\/edit\nposts with your favorite editor instead of the tiny textarea box in a\nbrowser,<\/span> but there are several new goodies with this version.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nI added many of the goodies while figuring out how to incorporate Y!Q<\/a> into my\nblog. Y!Q is a service<\/span> by Yahoo! which allows me to include contextual\n“search for more about this” links into my prose.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nAs an example of Y!Q, consider that I'm talking about Anthony's favorite\nstuffed friend,\n\n Curious George.\n\nNotice how the phrase “Curious George” has been highlighted? If you click<\/span> on it, you should see a popup<\/span> with Yahoo! search results for more\ninfo about the little monkey. (Use the [ESC]<\/small> key to remove\nthe popup.) I think<\/span> I'll add this “quick link to more info”\nfeature to my future posts, from time to time, when I think<\/span> it will make\nthe reading experience better.\n\n<\/p>

\n\nAnyway, back to my plugin, after taking advantage of some of the new things\nin v1.03, I've been able to set up an include file YQ.html<\/b> which\nallows me to create a Y!Q link as simply as:<\/p>\n\n

\n  <fbp_include set text<\/b>='Curious George': YQ.html>\n<\/pre>\n\n
or more complex, such as the<\/p>\n\n
\n  <fbp_include set text<\/b>='Curious George'\n               set focus<\/b>='books'\n               set context<\/b>='Curious George is a curious little monkey<\/span>': YQ.html>\n<\/pre>\n\n
which that I actually used above.<\/p>\n\n
\n\nHere's a look at the contents of the YQ.html<\/b> file:<\/p>\n\n
\n<fbp_var fallback=terms: text>\n<\/pre>\n\n
You can see the reference to many set-at-include-time variables, such as\nthe text<\/b> we used in the first example above. These many variables\nreflect the many ways Yahoo! allows the developer to customize and target\nthe results (see “Step 4” of the Y!Q Developer\nDocs<\/a>). You can also<\/span> see some interesting attributes to the\n<fbp_var> calls, such as fallback<\/b> and doublequoted<\/b>.\n(See the plugin's\nhome page<\/a> for details on what these mean.)\n\n<\/p>
\n\nFor completeness in case you'd like to use this yourself, here's the\nYQ_head<\/b> file referenced from the first line of YQ.html<\/b>:<\/p>\n\n
\n<script language=\"javascript\"\n        type=\"text\/javascript\"\n        src=\"http:\/\/yq.search.yahoo.com\/javascript\/yq.js\"><\/script>\n<\/pre>\n\n
\n\nFinally, here's something cool. I've included the above files in this post\nwith the following:<\/p>\n\n
\n   <pre style="...<\/i>">\n   <fbp_include uncounted cooked: YQ.html><\/b>\n   <\/pre>\n<\/pre>\n\n
This shows the new uncounted<\/b> and cooked<\/b> attributes to <fbp_include>.\n\n<\/p>\n
