[tw5] Getting the value of a field when the known fieldname is a variable

Hi, I'm having troubles with the value of a field to render correctly. It's a bit hard to explain, so I built a quick demo (below) that can be pasted into any wiki (such as tiddlywiki.com) -- it will create two tiddlers with specified fields, and show you where I'm having trouble getting the

If you try your format or my format for the address on a desktop platform you'll probably find that it works. If it crashes on Android, it probably means that either AndTidWiki or the app it attempted to launch crashed, most likely due to a memory shortage. When you say "opens in an external

My experience has been that the winning tiddler is based on alphabetical order, last plugin wins. So $:/plugins/mmm would be overwritten by $:/plugins/zzz but not $:/plugins/aaa. But I would be careful of expecting any hard and fast rules here, as I don't think the behavior is explicitly
