Hi,

I maintain a web site which is constantly being added to and edited.
Trying to indicate to site visitors what is new and then removing that
indicator after a reasonable interval is becoming onerous, and is
fraught with problems when done manually.

I wonder if there is anything -- a script I suppose -- that could be
invoked on my pages locally to tell me that some of my NEW indicators
have timed out and should be removed?

Since I'm putting the NEW indicators in manually now (via Clippings),
I can insert anything at all that would make this possible. Currently
I'm just using a span to style the word NEW, like so...
<span class="new">NEW</span>
....but that bit of inserted code could contain, I suppose, a date
stamp to enable automatic or semi-automatic removal. (Or could it? Can
I hide something like that in a span without being spanked by a
validator?)

I don't mind running a script locally since I edit all files locally.
And, need I say, I do all my editing in BBEdit, so invoking the script
within BBEdit would be just fine.

Ideas?

Rob
