Thx for the message<br>
<br>
So in the example you gave, is math the name of a variable?<br>
<br>
here is the syntax of my current zap form:<br>
<br>
--------------------------------<br>
(:input text E1 {$:E1} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E2 {$:E2} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E3 {$:E3} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E4 {$:E4} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E5 {$:E5} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E6 {$:E6} size=4:)<br>
(:input text E7 {$:E7} size=4:)<br>
<br>
Total {(math '{$:E1}+{$:E2}+{$:E3}+{$:E4}+{$:E5}+{$:E6}+{$:E7}')}<br>
--------------------------------<br>
<br>
what I want to do is assign the output of the math calculation to
another variable for use in another calculation.<br>
<br>
TIA<br>

<pre wrap="">I'm not using PmWiki anymore, but as I recall, ZAP has a built in math
command that can be used for this right in the form, before the data
values are saved. Somethig like
(:input text field1 3:)
(:input text field2 3:)
(:zap math="{=field1} + {=field2}":)
(:zap savedata=math:)
Pardon any problems in the syntax as it's been quite a while since I
switched to ZAPwiki.
Cheers,

<pre wrap="">I am using a form to save numeric values to a series of variables. Then
I use math to output totals of of those variables to the pmwiki screen.
What I want to do is assign these totals to other variables so I can
perform further calculations on these totals.
Can anyone help with the syntax needed to do something like this.
