Thank you for the reply.
I have succeeded in resolving most issues related to my inappropriate use
of the code snippet $(variable)$, which caused failures after the the
upgrade, but the there remains a couple of puzzles:
First, the following code continues to work: <<tag $(variable)$ >>. Is
this something that is harmless, or could continued use of this
configuration haunt me by failing after some future upgrade, and should I
be weeding use of this configuration out of my present code?
Second, I'm having trouble finding a replacement for the use of
$(variable)$ within a table of contents. I have tried defining it in a
macro; for example:
/define macroName(somevar)
<<toc-selectable-expandable $(somevar)$ >>
/end
<div>
<<macroName>>
</div>
This approach works so long as the tag being passed has no spaces, but it
fails when a space is present within the tag. I have tried all of the
tricks that I know that usually work when passing spaces within a
variable. For example, I have attempted to define the variable within an
accompanying macro. I have also tried defining the macrocall widget with a
secondary macro. So far, I have not found a solution. Does anyone have a
suggestion? How do you define a variable for use in the
<<toc-selectable-expandable tag="variable">> when the variable is defined
with a value that contains a space: for example, "this tag?"
