This is great, I didn't realize you could link to footnotes, but it makes sense. I couldn't figure out a way to link to multiple verses while using the footnote though. I have an article on my site, "How to Link to Highlighted LDS Scriptures" which I just updated to include about the footnote. http://lds.about.com/od/ldsscriptures/a/link_scriptures.htm In my blog entry I mentioned that this works in IE and someone commented that it works in Firefox. Does it work in Netscape? (Honestly I don't know if this is something that would/wouldn't work in some browsers and not others, that's obviously why I asked.) http://lds.about.com/b/a/257237.htm

Rickety,
Thanks for reminding me of the footnote. I’ve added it to the post above.

A footnote can be referenced and highlighted, though I have never made use of it. For example:

scriptures.lds.org/en/2_ne/9/51b
where 2 Nephi 9:51 has footnote b for verse 51 which is Eccl. 1:3.

Jacob, Yes, we have a common strategy for mp3s, video, PDF, PDA, and all other files posted online for download. See my new post Web File Names.

Joseph,
I just checked the blog’s spam filter and find one post (scriptures URL). I de-spamed it so it now shows up. I’m not sure why the filter thought it was spam. Sorry. Did you have other posts?

To respond to your comment, yes, we hope to have “hackable” URLs for most of the Gospel Library content and many other Web pages (that have an identifiable structure that lends itself to an intelligent URL). It’ll take us another month or two to get it implemented.

scriptures.lds.org has the best URLs of all the Church web sites! I’ve been referencing specific verses for friends and family using these awesome URLs for some time. I checked some old e-mails to make sure the links weren’t broken by the site update, and thankfully all of them are still good! Thank you.
