yikes! sorry for the miss-communication... lets see If I can bring this all together... I have many TW files, which have many tiddlers which are particular topics, all of these topics have 5 fields which are consistent in all tiddlers. I capture the comments field like this.: htmlTEXTAREA name=Comments rows=3 cols=30 /TEXTAREA/html Then, in a separate file, I include each of the other tw files, (I use this as a reporting mechanism for all of the TW files), using a For Each Tiddler like this: forEachTiddler where 'tiddler.tags.contains($1) tiddler.tags.contains($2)' sortBy 'tiddler.data(Field C)' descending write '|+tiddler.title+|+++^10em^[More Information][hide] [X (+tiddler.data(Field A)+)===|+tiddler.data(Field B)+|+++^10em^ [Comments][hide] [(+tiddler.data(Comments)+)===|+tiddler.data (Field D)+|\n' So, It works nicely in that it produces a nice neat little table, but when one wants to read the comments about this particular thing (and the comments could be paragraphs), they can click on the nested button of Comments. The problem, is that the comment field now is just a text box, it can be easily overwritten and it does not capture the users name or the time or date, so i am trying to find an alternative way to capture these comments (like comment plugin), but having it in something that can be referenced by the forEachTiddler above. I hope this helps and is clearer. Thank you so much for taking the time to help.

Never mind ListboxPlugin, then. I think it would be pretty hard to do what you're describing as part of a form. But it would be easy enough to have your tiddlers contain both a form and a comments section. Then, if the comments were preceded by, e.g., !comments you could display all the comments from a given tiddler using tiddler [[mytiddler##comments]] It would be easier to make suggestions for how to make this work if you could post an example. It sounds as though what you're looking for is something very like a blog and that's something I'm pretty sure other people have done. cmari On Feb 1, 3:32 pm, Linck Atlanta, Ga lschl...@gmail.com wrote: Ok, I am going on another route... but cant quite get it... there is a line: fmt: __''%subject%''__\n^^posted by %who% on %when%^^\n\n%message% \n\n, which make the comment write into the tiddler thusly: __comment subject__ linck 12:55pm Monday, 2010 this is my message So, I figure maybe I can rewrite it so it spits out: data{testfield:comment subject and comment message}/data Something like this: fmt: data{testfield:+''%subject%''}+ posted by %who% on %when %^^\n\n%message%\n\n+/data but I am not having much luck On Feb 1, 3:48 pm, Linck Atlanta, Ga lschl...@gmail.com wrote: I don't know if this helps, but the field I am referring to will always bee the same.

I seem to have isoloted that is it var target= in the comment plugin which tells it where to go... i have tried this: var target=tiddler.data(test); but it just creates a tiddler with the return of whatever happens to be defined in the field. What I want is to insert the comment into a field within the same tiddler in which it was created, and when someone adds another comment, it adds to the field, rather than replacing what was there... thoughts?

Re: [tw] Re: Comments Plugin
yes and this might work well with posterous. you could e-mail it from a tiddler, and then posterous could be set to tweet, pubish to wordpress, facebook and all that stuff.
