To use the script code I provided, you can import this tiddler: http://www.TiddlyTools.com/#ShowAge Then, embed it in your content like this: <<tiddler ShowAge with: startdate enddate>> You can specify dates using any javascript-recognized format, including: YYYY/MM/DD MM/DD/YYYY Month DD, YYYY etc. Omitting the end date defaults to the current date. You can also use 'today' as a keyword for either date. Dates can even be in the future, so that you can write: <<tiddler ShowAge with: today 2010/01/01>> to show how long it will be until the next New Year's day. Also, for your particular use-case, because you have used a *slice table* to define the birth/death dates, you can even do something like this: <<tiddler ShowAge with: {{store.getTiddlerText(tiddler.title+'::Birth','')}} {{store.getTiddlerText(tiddler.title+'::Death','')}}>> enjoy, -e Eric Shulman TiddlyTools / ELS Design Studios --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
