Question

Is it possible to return a list of results from a single topic in the February 2003 release? I am using the TWiki from java.net, which is on that release. The variable does not document a multiple attribute, and I have seen no examples showing how to do this.

The issue is that when working on a topic, if I have some thoughts but no time to properly write them, I will write bulleted items with TODO:, LINK:, and other tags. I would like to create a topic that lists all the TODO's (and other special tags) on any topics in the web--with each TODO shown, per topic. Right now I can show all the topics with TODO items, and optionally the text of the first TODO.

The only workaround I've thought of is to have a START and END tag around the bulleted list, then pull in the text block (all the TODO tags) in between START and END.

It seems that multiple searches was only added in a more recent release.

Answer

MultipleSearchesInSameTopic was introduced in September 2003.

I can't think of another workaround. The one you proposed would appear to be your only option.
