Hi, consider the following:
*Setup:* A tiddler named "test" with a field "ref" that contains the value "out" \define getVariable(field) <$transclude tiddler=<<currentTiddler>> field=$field$ /> \end <<getVariable "ref">> the above works: it prints "out", which is the field value of the field "ref" <$edit-text tiddler=<<getVariable "ref">> field="text" type="text" tag= "input" default=""></$edit-text> the above does NOT work: while writing text it prints the text into a tiddler named "<$transclude tiddler=test field=out />". it should print into a tiddler named "out", which is the return value of getVariable as shown above. on the other hand this would work. \define getVariable() out \end <$edit-text tiddler=<<getVariable>> field="text" type="text" tag="input" default=""></$edit-text> *Concluding Question:* Why isn't the transclusion parsed when used as input for edit-text? What am I missing? Thanks Felix -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
