This is what the link directs to:
javascript: ShowUtils();

I have the same problem in my blog. The link points to a script named ShowUtils(); which I can’t find. Using Google I can see that some sites have the script in their source. Where does it come from and where does it belong in the WordPress directory hierarchy? Should there be a tag in the header linking to an external script file somewhere? Thanks in advance for any insights you may have on this.

Hey dd0,
I kept poking around the web for an answer, and found a page that explained how to get that javascript to work.
In my case, I just added the following to comments.php right after the line that has the code for the comment headline, usually “Leave a reply”:
<script>
function ShowUtils() {
document.getElementById(“authorinfo”).style.display = “”;
document.getElementById(“showinfo”).style.display = “none”;
document.getElementById(“hideinfo”).style.display = “”;
}
function HideUtils() {
document.getElementById(“authorinfo”).style.display = “none”;
document.getElementById(“showinfo”).style.display = “”;
document.getElementById(“hideinfo”).style.display = “none”;
}
</script>
Your comments.php file may have everything else it needs to make this work. If it still does not work, check out this page for a detailed explanation of the code that needs to be in the comments.php file for this script to work correctly:

Hope this is helpful to you. It was very helpful to me!
