Hi Folks,
I would like to know if a script to automatically insert link to bible verse exists. I have a pastor who actually uses scripture in his sermons and talks. We use Dreamweaver for our church website and WordPress for our church blogs. He wanted to know if there were a script available to automatically insert the appropriate link to BibleGateway by just typing the scripture reference. Thanks.

Are you looking for a web application, or are you looking for an extension that will create links for you?

I would want the latter--an extension that would create the full link from the bible verse. I just didn't know if such a thing already existed or would be possible.

Sincerely.

Oh, ok...Well it would be possible, but I don't know if it has been done.

i just edited the quick search code on Bible Gateway's site to work on extenal sites, so just put this code in your page:

Hi,

We already use the search feature.

What I am looking for is a script or macro that will do the following: If Ephesians 2:8-9 is typed, will convert to the appropriate BibleGateway code, which in the case would be
"<a href=" http://www.biblegateway.com/bible?language=english&version=NIV&passage=Ephesians+2:8-9"> Ephesians 2:8-9</a>"

With their search if you type Ephesians 2:8-9 it takes you to that passage, and when I enter the url you mentioned into my browser it redirects me to the same page the search takes me.
