rats, that's the second time I thought you were talking about tiddler fields when you're actually talking about "form fields". Never mind ListboxPlugin, then.
I think it would be pretty hard to do what you're describing as part of a form. But it would be easy enough to have your tiddlers contain both a form and a comments section. Then, if the comments were preceded by, e.g., !comments you could display all the comments from a given tiddler using <<tiddler [[mytiddler##comments]]>> It would be easier to make suggestions for how to make this work if you could post an example. It sounds as though what you're looking for is something very like a blog and that's something I'm pretty sure other people have done. cmari On Feb 1, 3:32 pm, "Linck Atlanta, Ga" <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok, I am going on another route... but cant quite get it... > > there is a line: > > fmt: "__''%subject%''__\n^^posted by %who% on %when%^^\n<<<\n%message% > \n<<<\n", > > which make the comment write into the tiddler thusly: > > __comment subject__ linck 12:55pm Monday, 2010 <<<this is my > message>>> > > So, I figure maybe I can rewrite it so it spits out: > > <data>{"testfield":"comment subject and comment message"}</data> > > Something like this: > > fmt: "<data>{"testfield":"+"''%subject%''}"+ "posted by %who% on %when > %^^\n<<<\n%message%\n<<<\n"+"</data> > > but I am not having much luck.... > > On Feb 1, 3:48 pm, "Linck Atlanta, Ga" <[email protected]> wrote: > > > I don't know if this helps, but the field I am referring to will > > always bee the same.
