- bugfix ;): newlines were treated as white space...

@rick.ca:
- new feature ;D: when navigating on a list filtered by tag cloud a backlink to the tag cloud will appear on the upper right corner. It will disappear if tag cloud filter is not active anymore (after "show all entries", for example)

Thanks!

rick.ca:
Oops. I hate to say it—the backlink seemed so clever—but it's not a complete solution. Yes, now you can select a tag from the cloud, see a list of those movies, select a movie to see its details, then use the link to return to the cloud. But sooner or later, you'll want to return to a full list. To do that, you have to refresh or select 'show all entries'. After doing so, the link and tag cloud are gone for the session. The only way to get them back is to reload the page.

Wouldn't it be simpler and easier just to provide fixed radio buttons or links that force it one way or the other? Selecting the one that's already shown would do nothing, but I can't imagine anyone getting confused over that.

Ok, I just made the "tag cloud" backlink permanent...

That was fast. Thanks.

BTW, I'm now using this to create lists for a website. Nothing fancy, but maybe something I can direct a friend to for choosing a movie to watch. Or so they can see the movie they were going to suggest I've already seen and rated a 3. Anyway, while doing this I realized the 'Wish' tag was of no use, but what I really needed was a 'Bookmark' tag. I could use that for anything, including just marking items temporarily for the purpose of the list (e.g., to mark 'recommended' movies or 'chick flix'). I was surprise to find all I had to do was change 'wish' to 'bookmark' in HTML Frames.ptm.

So I'm happy, but you might want to add a green dot for bookmarked items, and support all three flags. Any categorization not available by other means could then be handled by bookmarking the items before exporting (and then changing the caption in empty.html). If you care to take that a step further, maybe get user input for the bookmark caption, and then place a legend under the list panel. Third party users (like those visiting my website) aren't likely to remember what the dots mean, even if they do read the explanation at the beginning.

Sorry, I have to make suggestions when something is this good.  :) 

Thanks again—I appreciate your work.
