SID-00026: How to use SEARCH function within a Form

Status:	Answered	TWiki version:	4.2.3	Perl version:

Hey everybody,

I'm doing a form using the following structure

The problem is that when I introduce the search in the table, the form doesn't accept it.

Is there any restriction for using a search function? If there is, does anybody have an idea of how to approach the situation?

Note: I'm a begginer at this, and have no experience in programming... so I would really appreciate an explanation as clear as possible

Make sure that the SEARCH produces the proper format, e.g. a comma-space delimited list without newlines. Specify a separator=", " to do that.

Example taken from SupportForm:

%SEARCH{ "INCLUDE\{.*SupportCategoryBody" type="regex" excludetopic="SupportCategoryTemplate" nonoise="on" format="$topic" separator=", " }%
