Hi Jed > I would like to be able to pass the output of <$count filter='[all[]]'/> to the macro as a parameter.
There is no way at the moment to store the results of wikifying text into a variable or a tiddler. Transcluded attributes on widgets/HTML elements are never wikified; the attribute gets the raw value of the variable or tiddler field. > I made a javascript macro that will return a random number in a given range using a given step size Did you see the earlier discussion about random number generation? Using a macro is not a safe strategy. Because of the limitation that JS macros are not refreshable, it'll work some of the time, but will cause problems in some situations. The key to remember is that the entire state of the wiki needs to be stored in the tiddler store. The system needs to render exactly the same DOM content for a given state of the tiddler store. Best wishes Jeremy.
