Track Number of Modifications

[Wormopolis]

Browsers tested: IE, FF, and Chrome
placement: Global footer

after code is installed, everytime someone makes a modification to a post it will keep the count number in memory and insert it back into the post. when the post is displayed, it shows down by the last edit message.


<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
//  show number of times modified in post
//  v1.1
//  by Wormopolis - www.wormocodes.com
//  do not repost - keep header intact

var currentModCount=0;

function updateModificationCount() {
 document.postForm.message.value+='[mod='+(currentModCount+1)+']';
}
function displayModificationCount(post) {
 var postTable=post.firstChild;
 var editRow=postTable.rows[2];
 var lastEditSpot=editRow.getElementsByTagName('i')[0];
 var postContent=postTable.rows[1].cells[0];
 var modCount=postContent.innerHTML.match(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/);
 postContent.innerHTML=postContent.innerHTML.replace(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/,'');
 var inserted=document.createTextNode('Modified '+modCount[1]+' time'+(modCount[1]!=1?'s - ':' - '));
 lastEditSpot.parentNode.insertBefore(inserted,lastEditSpot);
}

if (pb_action=='modifypost') {
 if (document.postForm && document.postForm.message.value.match(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/)) {
   currentModCount=parseInt(RegExp.$1);
 }
 document.postForm.message.value=document.postForm.message.value.replace(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/,'');
 if (document.postForm.addEventListener) {
   document.postForm.addEventListener('submit',updateModificationCount,true);
 } else {
   document.postForm.attachEvent('onsubmit',updateModificationCount);
 }
}
if (pb_action=='post' && location.href.match(/quote=/)) {
 if (document.postForm.message.value.match(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/)) {
   document.postForm.message.value=document.postForm.message.value.replace(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/g,'');
 }
}
if (pb_action.match(/display|recent|search/)) {
 for (td=document.getElementsByTagName('td'), tt=0; tt<td.length; tt++) {
   if (td[tt].width=='80%' && td[tt].vAlign=='top' && td[tt].className.match(/windowbg/) && td[tt].innerHTML.match(/\[mod=(\d+?)\]/)) displayModificationCount(td[tt]);
