Hi Jeremy, > Why would you expect "currentTiddler" to be defined outside of the story > river? > And what value would you expect it to have? >
In TWc, there were two cases in addition to the "story-tiddler"... 1. a placeholder had the "tiddler" attribute set to the corrsponding tiddler, e.g. SiteTitle 2. a transclusion had the "tiddler" attribute set to the corresponding tiddler being transcluded via the tiddler macro So, there was that way of knowing from within either of these instances what placeholder we're in, i.e. what is being rendered. There even had to be special handling via *story.findContainingTiddler* to find the actual story tiddler within code. Now, I am not saying this was better, but it turns out I am missing that other variant now, especially when there is no story around my rendered tiddler. When something tagged *$:/tag/ViewTemplate* is rendered, then *currentTiddler* for that template is what? Exactly, the tiddler for which the template is rendered. When something is tagged *$:/tag/PageTemplate* ...this context is?!? I don't know. But I'd sure like to know from within the code of that tiddler as you can see ...call it *contextTiddler*. :) Best wishes, Tobias. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
