			<<Added the ability to get the URL for posts whose archive pages have not yet been published. Removed an unused local variable.

			<<Created. Gets the url of the permanent link for a given weblog post. Returns true if the post's url was able to be determined, or false if not.

This listing is for code that runs in the OPML Editor environment. I created these listings because I wanted the search engines to index it, so that when I want to look up something in my codebase I don't have to use the much slower search functionality in my object database. Dave Winer.
