Hi
Perhaps a new utility function that can be called everywhere a field gets
created -- along the lines of this:
exports.addField = function(tiddler,name,value) {
var trimmedName = name.toLowerCase().trim();
if(!$tw.utils.isValidFieldName(trimmedName)) {
if(!hadInvalidFieldName) {
alert($tw.language.getString(
"InvalidFieldName",
{variables:
{fieldName: trimmedName}
}
));
hadInvalidFieldName = true;
return;
}
} else {
if(!value && tiddler) {
value = tiddler.fields[trimmedName];
}
addition[trimmedName] = value || "";
}
return;
};
regards
