</code></pre>
<p>In addition to extending the the listing details post via custom styles in your theme, you can also extend functionality via JavaScript.</p>
<h4>listingLoaded Function</h4>
<p>Each listing detail post will attempt to inject listing detail information and a list of images for the listing into a global function if your theme enables it.</p>
<p>To take advantage of this create a public function with the following syntax, that will be called when a listing detail post is displayed.</p>
<pre><code>/**
* Function that is called by GetRETS when a listing
* detail post is loaded.
* 
* listing - JSON object representing the details
*           of the listing
* images  - an array of image urls associated
*           with this listing
*/
function listingLoaded(listing, images) 
{ 
    alert(listing.description);
}
</code></pre>
<h4>Element Attributes</h4>
<p>Each element that is rendered is also rendered with an intuitive id to make it easy to allow for DOM manipulation.</p>
