Breaking/Brief news
December 29, 2005
This day last year
We don't really hope to recreate Rick Eyre's "Today In Cricket History" or Cricinfo's "All Today's Yesterdays", but we've got as far as providing a link to what we wrote on Cricket 24x7 a year ago.
I cobbled together some JavaScript to provide a link on the right-hand side navigation bar just below the link "Why Cricket 24x7?". Clicking on the link takes you to all posts here for the same date last year.
A few caveats:
- Works when JavaScript is enabled
- When there're no posts for a specific date, it takes you to the top of the archive page
- Will definitely break in case we change the archival mechanism or the date header format
- It has been years since I wrote original JavaScript, so things could break. Please leave comments to inform us when things go haywire! Of course, it would be useful if you mentioned your operating system, browser [version] etc. as well.
