Question

I was wondering if there was some way to create a variable that you could pass a text a command.

For example I use a particular style of div object to create notes on the Wiki.

I would like to be able to set a variable equal to this div object but in the area where I would normally put my text I would like to put something that would symbolize text that needed to be defined like

   * Set mynote = <div style= "mystyle">$defineme$</div>

Then I would go and use my variable like

%mynote{ "This is a note" }%

This way I don't have a bunch of duplicate div objects all over the Wiki and I can change them all from a central location.

I am not a programmer so I wont be able to easily write something to do this. Is there any existing resource/plugin that will allow me to do this or is something that requires some coding?

Thanks

I asked this question before, have a look at http://twiki.org/cgi-bin/view/Support/VariableThatHasAParameter

Probably another way to do this is by something like this?

• Set STYLE = <div style= "mystyle">
• Set ENDSTYLE= </div>
