Question

I've written an events system using TWiki

I have a "Due Date" as a form field & currently display a calendar by searching for "[D]ue date" & creating bulleted lists for the Calendar Plugin to use

I thought I'd add a repeating mechanism by a series of lines hidden within comments all of the format "Due Date value = " to imitate the layout of the meta data & set multiple on in a search

But it doesn't matter how many times this occurs in the text body of a topic. If the search string occurs in the memta data it is found once - and once only the multiple doesn't work.

I'm now using "Repeat =" & it works fine, so the error is in the SEARCH

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

The multiple="on" switch only works for text body, not for meta data. You can get at multiple form fields values with the $formfield() token in the format="..." parameter.

Setting to answered, if needed feel free to re-open with specifc question & example.
