Question

I've set up an topic for use in a "contacts system" we're creating in TWiki. I have the template of the contact info in a separate topic & refer to it by the include parameter of EDITTABLE, but...

the EDITCELL values aren't honoured: all fields are text areas.

Is this an oversfor future enhancement, or am I trying to run before i can walk? Or more obviously, have I missed a setting somewhere?

Answer

The include parameter only works in the EDITTABLE, not in the EDITCELL. At this time you cannot include the definition for an EDITCALL.

You can try if this works (not tested): Define a WebPreferences setting and use that in lieu of EDITCELL settings, e.g. | %EDITCELL{ %MYCELLDEF% }% |

I can't put the preference in the sub topic (I still get just the basic table definition), but that doesn't matter - having it in the WebPReferences still allows me to stack (in this case) English counties in one neat place.

Thanks
