S S,
I am not necessarily disagreeing with your suggestion however please
consider this solution for captions and titles, noting that there is a link
to the tiddler weather or not the caption is used
<$link to={{!!title}} tooltip="Click to open, View"><$view field="caption"
format=text><$view field="title" format=text></$view></$view></$link>
but if you only want the result as text you can use a (side effect?) feature of
the view widget
that displays its content if no value is returned
<$view field="caption" format=text>
<$view field="title" format=text></$view>
</$view>
Which on consideration is a very nice method by which to display something,
such as the ability to create a field
if the field does not exist.
Regards
Tony
