Note: I'll be reworking this tool as I've run into a slight problem. It seems the xml.rss.viewRssBox I'm using caches the information it displays, so that if you add or delete something to your ToDo category it won't show up for a while. Stay tuned.

Ok! I've got my ToDo.Radio "application" working. It's really simple and works quite nicely.

Right now this is how it works:

• Create a new category, called "ToDo"
• Anytime you have something you need to do or be reminded of, add it to your weblog under the "ToDo" category.
• While you're on your home page (edit-mode only!) you will see a table above the edit box displaying all your ToDo items.

Eventually I would like to add the following features:

• Ability to delete items directly from the table

The code is really simple, just follow these instructions:

• Open the Radio application (Right click on the Radio taskbar icon and select Open Radio)
• From the Window menu, open Radio.root
• Create a new script under the "workspace" key and call it showToDo
• Copy the following code to the showToDo script:
  • on showToDo () {
     bundle {
      try {
       local (pta = html.getpageaddress ());
       if pta^.radioResponder.flStaticRendering {
        return ("")}}};
     return (xml.rss.viewRssBox ("http://127.0.0.1:5335/categories/todo/rss.xml", "Things that need getting done!"))}
• Save your new script
• Go to your Desktop Website template Preferences page
• Decide where you want your ToDo table to appear. I use the Transmitter theme and wanted the table to appear above the Edit Box (wizzy editor), so I added the script call after the call to radio.macros.editorsOnlyMenu and before the call to radio.macros.weblogEditBox.
• All you have to add is "<%workspace.showToDo()%>" but it looks better if you add table code around it:
  • <table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="5">
     <tr>
      <td valign="top">&nbsp;</td>
      <td valign="top" width="100%">
       <%workspace.showToDo()%>
      </td>
     </tr>
    </table>
• Sumbit your changes and head over to your home page and check it out!
