Hey Hubert, I'm not sure that default html supports using a svg image in the placeholder field of the input box. I'm pretty sure that this affect is typically implemented via css. Take a look at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13761654/html5-image-icon-to-input-placeholder to see how someone was implementing putting a magnifying glass in a text box.
I did try the following, which got the html for the svg into the placeholder field, but as you can see, it doesn't render as html, but as plain text. <$wikify name="temp" text="[img width='12' [Motovun Jack.svg]] bla bla bla" output="html"> <$edit-text tiddler='$:/value' field='note' placeholder=<<temp>> /> </$wikify> On Thursday, March 22, 2018 at 12:14:19 PM UTC-4, hubertgk wrote: > > Hi, > > I'm trying to place a local (non-URL'ed) SVG image in a placeholder of a text > input field > <https://tiddlywiki.com/#EditTextWidget:EditTextWidget+HelloThere+GettingStarted+Community> > > but it doesn't get 'wikified'. > > One workaround I've tried was to define a background image using CSS, > however this doesn't seem to work with internal images. > > Example code: > > <$edit-text tiddler='$:/value' field='note' placeholder='[img width=12 > [image.svg]] Bla bla bla'/> > > I'd appreciate ideas how to solve this.
