msd_sopablackout: Blackout your Textpattern site to protest SOPA.

With all the sites a crossed the web being blacked out on January 18th I wanted to show my disapproval of the SOPA and PIPA bills by blacking out my site as well.

I found that sopablackout.org had an easy and nice looking script so I built a Textpattern tag to implement it.

Use

<msd_sopablackout/>

The msd_sopablackout tag is used to add Sopablackout.org JavaScript to the “head” section of your Textpattern page. The tag will link to a local version of the sopablackout javascript file instead of going to their site for it.

Attributes

id=“dom element”

Target a specific element of the DOM.

Default: document.body

date=“YYYY,MM,DD”

The date that the script should be active. Should be provided in YYYY,MM,DD format.

Default: always active

clickthrough=‘boolean’

Allow visitors to clickthrough.

Default: false

Examples

<txp:msdsopablackout id="sopa" clickthrough="true" date="2012,1,18"/>

Adds the blackout script to the DOM element with the id of “sopa” on January 18th without allowing the visitor to clickthrough.
