This is the code I’m using – for now anyway – if I can get it to post here:

digg_topic = "fill-in-topic-name-here";
digg_url = "";
digg_title = "";
digg_bodytext = "fill-this-in-with-good-description";

I have one question:I can't tell if the title is working with mine - it doesn't look like it. When I hold my cursor over the digg button, the url that shows in the bottom of the browser just includes the permalink and not the title and not the description I want to use in digg_bodytext either.Ruth Marie Sylte - I'm just using mine in specific posts also. Most of mine wouldn't have a chance in Digg. But for the few that would I want to have something ready for it. My plan is to keep the code for it someplace handy then just copy and paste it into a post when I need it and then fill in the topic and bodytext manually.Trishas last blog post..<a href="http://www.ideasforwomen.com/news/change/2008/07/22/264/" rel="nofollow">I missed it!</a> I finally got the time to back here and read through this more carefully!

I don't think all my postings are Digg-worthy, but some might be and I'd rather have a fantastic compact button/feature like you've designed on those individuals pages. Suggestions?
