Hi Novan > QUESTION: Is there a built-in method for retrieving a macro's or widget's > calling tiddler element/DOM node?
Just to clarify the question, JavaScript macros are invoked with “this” pointing to the widget in whose context the macro is to be evaluated, just as a method of the widget object would be. Anyhow, widgets have a couple of standard properties that connect them to the DOM tree: * domNodes, an array of references to the DOM nodes created by the widget itself * parentDomNode, a reference to the immediate parent DOM node of the widget > For example, in TWC you could use story.findContainingTiddler(popup_element) > to find a popup's calling tiddler's DOM node. In TW5, there’s far less direct manipulation of the DOM. Unlike TWC, state is not kept in the DOM; instead the DOM is dynamically recreated as required from the state data stored in tiddlers.
