"hidden" icon posted: Sat 2011-08-20 21:19:14 tags: phosphoros
For some reason the checkbox-type input element to flag entries under editing as "hidden" is, itself, invisible in the edit page. I know it's there, I can see the selection outline if I tab to it, but I can't tell if it's toggled. I could deal with it easier if I at least had an indicator in the entry template to tell me if the entry was flagged hidden. A little twiddling and here's what I came up with:

At first I tried an inline style spec including a "title:'hidden'" attribute. I don't know why "they" saw fit to exclude the TITLE attribute from the CSS lexicon, but exclude "they" did. If you want a TITLE you have to compose tags like this:

<span style="font-weight:bold" title="hidden">...</span>

not this:
<span style="font-weight:bold;title:'hidden'">...</span>
