Hi James, Java <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_(programming_language)> and JavaScript <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JavaScript> are different languages. In the browser we use JavaScript. If we would allow to include examples as shown in your link, we would expose our users to a security risk. For the same reason Google won't allow it, here in the group, to post executable examples. So with TW we will need a safe way to allow our users to do "crazy stuff" that wouldn't be allowed otherwise. We expose those functions with socalled: widgets and macros. The example Ton pointed to is using a tw macro like: <<copy-to-clipboard "Mary had a little lamb">> The macro definition contains a predefined button. A second possibility would be to use the "tm-copy-to-clipboard" tiddlywiki internal message. eg: <$button message="tm-copy-to-clipboard" param=<<now>>> Copy date to clipboard </$button> Where you can define the text that will be shown. In the example above it will be [Copy date to clipboard] button and the content will be everything, that is stored as a parameter. There are a lot of different possibilities to assign something to a parameter eg: The content of an other tiddler. <$button message="tm-copy-to-clipboard" param={{test-tiddler}}> Copy the content of "test-tiddler" into the clipboard </$button> So if you specify a bit closer, what you really need, I think we are able to tell you, how to do it "The TiddlyWiki Way" ;) have fun! mario -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
