If the article hasn’t been added to Sturvs yet, then a “Sturv It” link will be displayed which will submit the aricle to Sturvs when clicked.For a page which will have only one article and only one button use this code:

   <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.sturvs.com/button"></script>

   An example of this can be found here.

   For a page which will have more than one article and more than one button on it (e.g a blog’s home, category or archive pages) use this code:

   <script type="text/javascript">
submit_url = 'ARTICLE_URL';
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.sturvs.com/button"></script>

   An example of this can be found here.
