    Wordpress Permalink/Title Issue

    I'm trying to add social network urls to my blog by adding the below code to the sidebar.php file of my wordpress blog for each of the networks:

    Code:
    <a href="http://del.icio.us/post?url=<?php the_permalink() ?>&title=<?php the_title(); ?>"target=_blank><img src='http://franketeam.com/blog/delicious.gif' border='0'>Del.icio.us</a><br>
    However, the when you click on them from the home page, the most recent blog's url is sent instead of that of the page, which is the only time it's an issue.

    The second problem, is that the title only includes the date of the post, which IS in the title, but nothing after the first space... so I was wondering if I could use something other than "the_permalink" or "the_title" that would use a different method of creating the full link.

      I looked around but not what you would call, thoroughly :) I found another one before that I tried, but it didn't work correctly, I believe because it was outdated, but I will search for the one you just mentioned right now! Thanks.

          Thanks Karen, I tried that one and another one I heard about while I was looking for that one called ShareThis which is the one I ended up using. Both of them accomplish the same thing but I liked the look and function of sharethis and it had some extra built in options that will probably never be used, but it's just cool to have them :)
