have you tried metahtml encoding?

encoding=metahtml will evaluate a variable and execute all witango instructions inside it like it sound you want it to.

similar to runtime evaluation of an include file.

(I recall my DEC PDP-9 had an opcode to "Execute the instruction at
the operand address.  That's what I want to do).

Say I SELECT default FROM table WHERE...

resultset[1,1]: ==> <@CURRENTTIMESTAMP>

So I want to replace @@resultset[1,1] with the currenttimestamp as
evaluated by witango (or some other reasonable metatag).

I was hoping that <@CALC <@VAR ENCODING="none" SCOPE="request"
NAME="resultset[1,1]">>

would work per the manpage that states:

[quote]The rule is, if the expression contains a single meta tag,
such an expression is fully evaluated by the calculator, rather than
treated as a string.[/quote]

Anyone know how to do this?
