@ -8,24 +8,32 @@ formatted dates and times embedded in your HTML (à la microformats).
First, load jQuery and the plugin:
<script src="jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.timeago.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
```html
<script src="jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.timeago.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
```
Now, let's attach it to your timestamps on DOM ready:
<pre>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery("abbr.timeago").timeago();
});
</pre>
```html
<pre>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
jQuery("abbr.timeago").timeago();
});
</pre>
```
This will turn all abbr elements with a class of timeago and an ISO 8601 timestamp in the title:
<abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">July 17, 2008</abbr>
```html
<abbr class="timeago" title="2008-07-17T09:24:17Z">July 17, 2008</abbr>
```
into something like this:
<abbr class="timeago" title="July 17, 2008">about 1 day ago</abbr>
```html
<abbr class="timeago" title="July 17, 2008">about 1 day ago</abbr>
```
As time passes, the timestamps will automatically update.
