Hi,

I think the issue is just that, by default, SMW doesn't allow property
values that contain brackets, because the handling for it is buggy. You can
override that, though, just by adding the following to your
LocalSettings.php:

$smwgLinksInValues = true;

Hi All,

  I am having trouble with the display of content that is input into a text
field on a form.  In order to gain more control over the display of free
text I followed Yaron's advice from another posting where he recommended
eliminating the free text entry and replacing it with with a text field in a
template.  I followed his advice and gained the control over the layout of
the text that I was after.  However, during testing I discovered if a user
inputs any sort of wiki markup anywhere in the text it causes the template
definition text for that field to be displayed.

 

For example:

Using the Template and Form definitions below I can enter regular text in
the Notes field of the MyTestNotes template and it will be displayed as one
would expect. (Note: Using CAPS to indicate user-entered text.)

 

i.e. Entering MY TEST TEXT. would result in the display of MY TEST TEXT.

 

However, if I add an image, category tag, article link, or just about any
other annotation text, the template text will be displayed.

 

i.e. Entering MY TEST TEXT. [[image:myimage.jpg]] results in the display of
[[Notes::MY TEST TEXT. <the image>]] when in page view.  Note the template
text surrounding the content.  Article and Category links will be
functional, and images are displayed correctly, but the entire entry is
always wrapped in the template text.

 

This issue has a detrimental effect on section headers too.  If you don't
put some sort of simple text at the very beginning of the entry the section
header will be displayed as Notes::==My Special Notes==, instead of My
Special Notes in large bold with a horizontal rule.

 

Am I doing something wrong here or have I uncovered a bug? (I'm pretty new
to the sematic wiki world, so I wouldn't be surprised if it is something
I've overlooked or done incorrectly.)  :-)

 

Thanks,

Brian

Edit the page to see the template text.

</noinclude><includeonly>

{|style="float:left; clear:none;width:60%;"

It should be called in the following format:

<pre>

{{MyTestDetails

|Voltage - Rated=

|Voltage - Tested=

}}

</pre>

Edit the page to see the template text.
