First, love Drupal. First experience with a CMS for a very non-coding guy, and with enough ingenuity, it has been doing what I want it to do. Thank you, oh Drupal gods.
The only thing I haven't quite figured out, including how to code it myself, is what I'm calling Line Guides.
I use Drupal to run a site that assists authors and poets in giving each other feedback on their works utilizing DIFF and other "version" methods to allow them to track changes and offer suggestions. What would be wonderful is a way to get a Line Guide added to each post. That is, if a user posted:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Drupal kicks ass
and so do I...
I mean, you.
Yep, I said it
don't sweat it
or get dropped into
so blah
it would come out as
L1 Roses are red
Violets are blue
Drupal kicks ass
and so do I...
L5 I mean, you.
Yep, I said it
don't sweat it
or get dropped into
L10 so blah
except there would be some nice spacing between the L1, L5, L10 and the content beside them. One way I can think to do it would be to get Drupal to use a default template for pages of the Short Story and Poetry type, which consists of a table with two columns (L's on the left, content on the right). Is there a way to get Drupal to do such a thing?
I know this
