Hi Eric, Here's what I've got so far, after just a few minutes of playing with your macro. It replicates my *<$select>* widget example above, but using your *<<combobox>>* macro instead...
<<combobox tiddler:"$:/_Temp/foobar" field:"city" filter:"[tag[foobar]]">> What I'd like to know now is how to use the *filter:* parameter to specify only the unique values of the "city" field for each tiddler that is tagged as foobar , and to ignore those tiddlers returned by the filter that don't contain a "city" field. How would I go about doing that? Hegart.
