I meant the wiki source (?action=source), rather than the html source. The html looks correct, but we should check the wiki source to verify it is correct. I assume you have tried using the form to edit the page and it correctly takes the data apart for editing? ><snip> > >To link to a project by its title, use this markup: > >[[?title of page]] > >The '?' markup tells it to invoke the title lookup. > ><snip> > >This works quite well.

Is that easily achievable? > I have had an "attach" field type on my to do list for a while. Maybe it's time to give this task a higher priority... I think it could work like this: - in the FormTemplate, define a field like this example: :Upload file:upload (attach=png|jpg|gif) - this produces the following form field layout: Upload file Attach:[.........................] dot ( ) png ( ) jpg ( ) gif - the author fills in the name of the file and clicks the desired extension - once the form is saved, the author clicks the link to invoke the standard upload function - the list of extensions could be optional; if undefined, the author would have to supply it and any extension would be allowed; if only one extension type is allowed (eg for a pdf library), that could be added automatically I think this would be quite easy to implement.
