[O] Get :PROPERTY: value from drawer in other heading during HTML export?
When generating an HTML file from an org-mode document, I'd like to do a
GET operation to retrieve a property value from the drawer of an arbitrary
heading, using the CUSTOM_ID property to identify the heading. From
Google-searching, I suspect that org-heading-components will be involved,
but I'm not proficient enough in elisp to be able to figure out how to use
it from the on-line examples I've found --- and I'm not proficient enough
in Emacs to use any built-in documentation about it (apropos doesn't
produce any results).
Here's an example, where GET-PROP is a macro I'd like to use:
==BEGIN==
#+MACRO: get-prop []
#+MACRO: get-title [omitted -- thanks to Nicolas Goaziou for the get-title
macro, at
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2014-02/msg00386.html]
* CLAUSES
** Affiliate status from voting control
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: AffilDefn
:CD-ID: AFFIL-VOTE
:IMPORTANCE: Situational
:PUSHBACK: Unlikely
:END:
(a) One individual or organization (Person) is an {{{DEFN(Affiliate)}}}
of another Person if, directly or indirectly via one or more
intermediaries, one of those Persons /controls/ (as defined in subdivision
(b) below), or is controlled by, or is under common control with, the other
Person.
(b) [other text omitted]
* CONTRACT TEMPLATES
** Nondisclosure Agreement
{{{GET-PROP(AffilDefn,CD-ID)}}}: {{{GET-TITLE(AffilDefn)}}} -- pushback
from the other side is {{{GET-PROP(AffilDefn,PUSHBACK)}}}.
# This should export to:
# AFFIL-VOTE: Affiliate status from voting control -- pushback from the
other side is: Unlikely.
==END==
Thanks in advance,

Beautiful -- thanks! Is there any documentation I can read to get a sense of how things work? I've done a little bit of browsing inside org.el and its comments, but that seems like it's not the most effective way to get up to speed. Regards, --D. C. *D*ell *C*harles D. C.
