An Easy Example
The title of the site is a straightforward example of using a Skin
Tag. It uses a tag to substitute the username of the site. Here's what
it looks like:
|
<$Username$>'s Xanga Site
|
[jump to source]
When someone else views the page, the <$Username$> will be
replaced by the actual username of the site.
Now you might be wondering why we use a tag to display something as
simple as the username. The reason is that you can share your Skin with
other Xanga users. If someone share's your skin, and it has your actual
username in it, their skin will have your username as well. However,
using the <$Username$> tag ensures the page will display the
correct username, no matter who's site the Skin is on. You can learn
