Thanks Eric -- I tried your technique, but was getting this error in the final transcluded tidler: Error while executing macro <<tiddler>>: Unable to evaluate {{tiddler.title}}: TypeError: tiddler is null
The techniques I had been trying up to now have used story.findContainingTiddler(place).getAttribute("tiddler") So I tried it. This also got an error, but then I read on your web page to use place.parentNode. So I tried this version: {{story.findContainingTiddler(place.parentNode).getAttribute("tiddler")}} like this: <div class='tiddler' macro='tiddler ReceiptStuffing with: {{story.findContainingTiddler(place.parentNode).getAttribute("tiddler")}}'></div> And ... this seems to work! Should the simpler {{tiddler.title}} have worked? Thanks!! Mark On Thursday, June 13, 2013 4:14:48 PM UTC-8, Eric Shulman wrote: > > > It appears what I thought I wanted wasn't what I needed.
