One of the things about writing a book/story is that you can have flashbacks, or can be telling a parallel story, unfolding in one thread the past so you can see how it influences the 'present' thread.
So on my book writing tiddlywiki I have a field for each chapter that is the 'date' -- the timeline. In the ChapterViewTemplate <b>Date: </b><span macro='view dateline date'></span> But in the ChapterEditTemplate I have a problem. Using <b>Date: </b><span macro='edit dateline '></span> I just get this field with a big number. Its not a date. Yes there are calendar popup plugins. I've tried them and they are awkward. I can't easily enter a date a few centuries away, past or future. You only move one month at a time... more like that I'd really like to be able to enter dates as the three fields, day month year, and have that converted when I press 'done' but I'm not figuring this out. Its going to take JavaScript programming, isn't it? I haven't found any example to cut-and-paste. A popup/select for "month" might be asking too much. Is there such out there? Could someone point me in the right direction, please. My google-fu seems to have run out. This is "Classic". -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
