Hello, I am attempting to create a contacts database that automatically creates a "google maps search" to an address. (This is so that when on my mobile device, I can look up a name and simply click an address to get directions to that persons house.
To do this I use the following example: http://maps.google.com/?q=the white house I have 2 fields within my Tiddlers contact form: Field 1: Google Maps Link: http://maps.google.com/?q= Field 2: address (in my contacts db): the white house I think what I am trying to do has already been solved here <https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/tiddlywiki/s39BsTKvazk>, but I don't understand it fully. In my simple TW5 knowledge I am trying to accomplish this: [ext[{{!!googlemapslink}}+{{!!address}}]] but I know this doesn't work due to how the transclusion works. I have also tried to \define my field as a variable and insert it like this: Where field: {{!!addgmap}} = {{!!googlemapslink}}{{!!address}} \define mymacro() <$set name="result" value={{!!addgmap}}> <<result>> </$set> \end <a href=<<mymacro>>>Test </a> <<mymacro>> And it successfully creates a link, but the link points something like this: MYSERVERIP/<$set%20name="result"%20value=%7B%7B!!addgmap%7D%7D><<result>></$set> I am quite new to this language, and generally just manipulate others code to work for my purposes, but this is the first time I've attempted to build something myself and I am failing lol.
