I hadn't looked closely at "contains".
The things to note are that "contains" takes a title list (a list of
titles) as input -- NOT a string of text. And, it only matches by complete
tokens from a specified list field.
So, this version of your code works IF you have the colon standing on it's
own:
\define test1()
<$set name=source value="$:/note">
<$set name=content value=":">
<<test2>>
</$set>
</$set>
\end
\define test2()
<$list filter="[[$(source)$]contains:note[$(content)$]]">
YES <<currentTiddler>>
</$list>
<$list filter="[[$(source)$]!contains:note[$(content)$]]">
No <<currentTiddler>>
</$list>
\end
<<test1>>
This alternative version of your code probably comes closer to what you
wanted to do. It uses the *search* filter operator
\define test1()
<$set name=source value="$:/note">
<$set name=content value=":">
<<test2>>
</$set>
</$set>
\end
\define test2()
<$list filter="[[$(source)$]search:note[$(content)$]]">
YES <<currentTiddler>>
</$list>
<$list filter="[[$(source)$]!search:note[$(content)$]]">
No <<currentTiddler>>
</$list>
\end
<<test1>>
Good luck
