[tw] Re: Referencing a tiddler with spaces in a link

2009-07-10 Thread AlanBCohen

The dangers of overthinking the problem!

Thanks Morris!
[[Johnny Smith|Smith, Jonathan F.]] gave me exactly what I needed for
this.  I had been thinking I needed to enclose the section after the
bar (|) with double squares, but that didn't work.  I didn't think to
try leaving them off.  Duh!

It's not exactly clear to me what you're after but
[[Johnny Smith|Smith, Jonathan F.]] gives you a pretty link to Smith,
Jonathan F. with the title Johnny Smith
[[Johnny Smith]] gives the link to Johnny Smith
[[Smith, Jonathan F.]] is the link to Smith, Jonathan F.
[[Smith, Jonathan F.|Johnny Smith]] gives a link to Johnny Smith with
the title Smith, Jonathan F.

Does that help?
