While trying to create a button that resets the *created* date on a tiddler, I absentmindedly tried the following:
\define now-timestamp() <<now [UTC]YYYY0MM0DD0hh0mm0ssXXX>> <$button set="!!created" setTo=<<now-timestamp>>> Created Now </$button> Now, I'm aware this snippet doesn't work and can't be expected to because the contents of *now-timestamp* aren't wikified when the macro call is being used as a transcluded widget-attribute value. I've since produced a correct version. However, I'm still confused about the result of clicking the button: the *created* field was set to NaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaNNaN. I'm puzzled by what kind of calculation the *setTo* attribute of the $button widget is doing that's able to create a bunch of concatenated NaNs. I would have expected to simply get the literal text <<now [UTC]YYYY0MM0DD0hh0mm0ssXXX>> in the field. Is there something special about the *created* field in this regard? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
