I am thrilled with the capabilities of WikiForm - it never occurred to me
something so powerful could be implemented as simply as you have made it!
Bravo! (I'm using it to keep a sort of database of published literature in
the Albanian language)
1st question: from the documentation it looks like (:wikilist
EngTitle=Wind:) should give me a list of pages where the variable "EngTitle"
contains the text "Wind". However, no matter what variable names I put in
and no matter what values I put in I always end up with a complete list of
all pages in my WikiForm rather than some subset. (See
www.ccl-al.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=X.X for my test-site example - I've
removed the search criteria right now because I couldn't make it work)
2nd question: is there any way to anchor the substring search? In other
words EngTitle=a as I understand it would match all pages where the
"EngTitle" variable contains the letter "a". Is there any way to anchor
that ala ^ or $ or something like that? (For instance, one of my variables
is "type" and indicates whether the piece of literature is a Book or a
Booklet. If I search for "Type=Book" then by my understanding it will
return BOTH "Book" and "Booklet" results when I obviously want just "Book"
in that case.)
