a coding question re user names

[princessofgeeks]

Okay, so I'm using the crosspost feature here to post to my LJ simultaneously when I make a DW post in my DW journal. All copacetic.

And I know how to code the names of DW users on DW, so that that shows up as a link to their profile page, and furthermore, now I know how to code so as to make the LJ account user names show up as links in the traditional LJ manner on both the DW side and the LJ side.

My question is:

*drumroll*

How do I code the DW user names so that ON THE LIVEJOURNAL SIDE (through the crossposter), they will show up with the cute new little gray DW user symbol and become a live link there?

Maybe those instructions exist, but I have not found them. Thank you in advance for your help.

I'm glad you dropped by! It's good to know I'm not alone. :)

Are you also on a Mac with a Safari browser? I'm beginning to think, as PoG said, it's not always the Mac/Safari. It may be that people use quote marks because they were taught to, but it might not always be necessary, just habit.

I'm on a regular ol' PC with IE. I used to use quotes, and then once I didn't for some reason, and it still worked, and I rejoiced, because they always used to trip me up and force me to study my code for too long before finding the issue. Heee.

I think people use them out of habit, too.
