Question

I'd like to set up an HTML-form to be included in pages with a TWiki-form. The HTML-form will use FORMFIELD to create a new page (from template) with the TWiki-form, changing a few values. I want the HTML-form in an included file for ease of maintenance. But the FORMFIELDs get evaluated in the context of the included file. I've figured out I can escape them with CALC{$CHR(37)..., but this is pretty ugly. Is there a cleaner way?

Environment

TWiki plugins: DefaultPlugin, EmptyPlugin, InterwikiPlugin
Server OS: TWikiVMDebianStable

VarFORMFIELD has a topic="" parameter. Use it to point to the including topic, e.g. topic="%INCLUDINGWEB%.%INCLUDINGTOPIC%".
