Taggly, a tag-cloud library - El Forum - 11-06-2007 [eluser]Gavin Vickery[/eluser] Hey Everybody, I've been working on one of my first libraries for CI called Taggly. Taggly is used to easily create tag-clouds. You can also control how your tag-cloud is created by setting configuration options. You can download Taggly, along with its user guide here: Download Taggly ============================================ What is a Tag-Cloud? A tag-cloud is a collection of text links with varying size (and sometimes color) based on their popularity. Sites such as Flickr, Delicious and Tag-A-Cloud use this concept. What does it look like? See Taggly in action What is the syntax? The syntax in its very basic form is this: Code: $myArray = array ( You can get more complex by passing configuration parameters: Code: $configArray = array ( Taggly Output Taggly creates and returns links with defined sizes based on the data given in your array. An example output: Code: <a style="font-size: 21px" class="taggly" href="http://example.com" title="Hue">Hue</a> You can find more information in the User Guide included in the Taggly download package.
