Here are a few corrections and revisions to my examples of the new, more customization-friendly markup at the bottom of: http://mojo.skazat.com/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi/archive/dadadev/20050823020009/ - Two other widgets, "root_login_message" and "help_links", could've been shown in the admin page also. [After all, when they *are* enabled, they're global rather than screen-specific. It was kind of a toss-up, really.] - id="Breadcrumbs" should have been shown in lowercase. - Starting in 2.1 ...Continue Reading

The brilliant thing about the way you've designed that function, Justin, is that it's *perfectly* intuitive. So we don't *need* to explain any of those concepts "in such a ...Continue Reading
