Hi Richard.
Thanks, but that *definitely* won't work, since it's get_content
that translates the {{tags}}. The $HTML->{ACTION} = $action; line
only affects the output of print_form because get_content converts
%HTML's elements in the template files. If anything, I want the
above line higher up in the function, no lower down.
But I got it working. Thanks for the suggestions. :-)
