Hi Eric - this is true magic : - )
Of course *you* would say that it's easy -
I only had a hunch - that it ought to be easy - considering what I've
seen uptill now!!
2 questions:
1)
If I could make it work with any hr-seperated lists like this:
<<tiddler TiddlerContainingScript with SomeTiddlerName >>
It would be even better...
I presume it's a matter of changing ("SomeTiddler","") to ('$1','') ??
Am I on the right track?
2)
My next action with the hr-seperated list would be to add toggletag A
and toggletag B to each item - referring to the tiddlerLink -
Will it work in the table?
