Anything like that, which you can create a small, repeatable test case for,
should be sent to WT to look at. I'm not saying that it IS a bug and/or that
it WILL be fixed, but they should know.

Personally, I've used custom tags as quick means to return data (either from
a standardized db lookup or a particular data manipulation I want done -
like shorthand inline callmethod), I've never used them within other tags,
and I suspect that the 'thought' process within Witango might not be ideal
here.

I would be interested in seeing what you are doing, if you'd care to CC me
on your email. I can also do some testing here, and I would be interested to
see if there's a behavioral difference between 5.0 and 5.5.

Subject: Witango-Talk: Custom Tags in expressions

So... Are there known issues with using Custom Tags in expressions. (ie, 
"If" Actions, expr="" attributes etc...)  because It's not something 
we've ever really done before, and now that I'm testing out a couple of 
new custom tags that i will be doing that sort of thing with i'm seeing 
some very strange behaviour.  Like "LEN(<@mycustomtag>)" where 
<@mycustomtag> returns an empty string, LEN is returning "56"  obviously 
wronge, If I assign the output of the custom tag to a var and do a len 
on the var it returns 0 like it should...

Just wanted to know if these issues were know about by anybody else or 
if they are new and I should submit bug reports.

/John
