Yeah so far it only works for FireFox as I discovered later. It doesn’t work in Opera or IE either. It’s something having to do with the CSS, but I can’t figure it out – I’ve tried every method that I know of to hack it to get it to work, but so far, no dice. >:|

Nifty thing! :D
*makes a mental note: remember to add the dash between ‘spoken’ and ‘for’ the next time…*

Oops. That should be:

$b[$key] = "modified $item";

Duh.

I am so totally geeking out all over the place today.

What's funny is that I wrote the whole tutorial before I put down a line of code. So I basically followed my own tutorial to create the pluigin. array_map() is a pretty goofy function, but I find it very useful. The PHP documentation for it does a decent job of explaining it. array_map() basically does the same thing as this:

$a=array('one', 'two', 'three');
foreach($a as $key => $item) {
$b[$key] = "modified $a";
}
return $b;

You send an array ($a) to array_map with the name of a function that will modify each array item, and you get back a new array with modified items ($b).
