Ouch. Presumably one could still use a dynamically created div, though, even if it has to be (briefly) visible. > I am trying to understand how the suggested widget and how params are passed > to the modal display would relate to tiddler identification and systematic > selection? The code I was pointing to was the code needed to (a) gather variables from the paramObject of a message and (b) to feed those variables into the rendering process.
