ADDTOHEAD -- add HTML to the HTML head section of the current page

  • Useful for TWiki applications to add custom CSS or JavaScript to the HTML head section of a topic. Supplied TWiki variables will be expanded. %ADDTOHEAD{}% expands in-place to an empty string, unless there is an error in which case the variable expands to an error string.
  • Syntax: %ADDTOHEAD{ "..." text="..." }%
  • Supported parameters:
    Parameter: Description: Comment:
    "..." ID of the head block, such as "MY_CSS" Optional but recommended
    text="..." HTML text to add to the head section Mutually exclusive with topic=""
    topic="Web.TopicName" Name of topic that contains the full HTML text to add to the head section, such as topic="Main.MyCssTopic" Mutually exclusive with text=""
    section="name" If topic parameter is used, includes only the specified named section, as defined in the topic by the STARTSECTION and ENDSECTION variables. Nothing is shown if the named section does not exists. section="" is equivalent to not specifying a section Optional

CALC{"formula"} -- add spreadsheet calculations to tables

  • The %CALC{formula}% variable is handled by the SpreadSheetPlugin. Over 100 functions are available, such as $ABS(), $EXACT(), $EXISTS(), $GET()/$SET(), $IF(), $LOG(), $LOWER(), $PERCENTILE(), $TIME(), $VALUE().
  • Syntax: %CALC{formula}%
  • Examples:
    • %CALC{$SUM($ABOVE())}% returns the sum of all cells above the current cell
    • %CALC{$EXISTS(Web.SomeTopic)}% returns 1 if the topic exists
    • %CALC{$UPPER(Collaboration)}% returns COLLABORATION
  • Note: The CALC variable is handled with delay compared to other TWiki variables. You may get unexpected results if you nest CALC inside other variables (such as %INCLUDE{%CALC{...}%}%) because it does not get evaluated inside-out & left-to-right like ordinary TWiki variables. Use CALCULATE if you nest variables.

    • %CALC{$EXISTS(Web.SomeTopic)}% returns 1 if the topic exists
    • %CALC{$UPPER(Collaboration)}% returns COLLABORATION
  • Note: The CALCULATE variable is handled inside-out & left-to-right like ordinary TWiki variables, but it does not support functions that refer to table cells, such as $LEFT() or $T(). Use CALC instead.

    ENCODE{string} -- encode a string to URL entities, HTML entities, CSV format, and more

    • Encode "special" characters in a string to HTML numeric entities, URL entities. Also escapes special characters for CSV use and more.
    • Encoded characters:
      • all non-printable ASCII characters below space, except newline ("\n") and linefeed ("\r")
      • HTML special characters "<", ">", "&", single quote (') and double quote (")
      • TWiki special characters "%", "[", "]", "@", "_", "*", "=" and "|"
    • Syntax: %ENCODE{"string"}%
    • Supported parameters:
      Parameter: Description: Default:
      "string" String to encode required (can be empty)
      type="url" Encode special characters for URL parameter use, like a double quote into %22 (this is the default)
      type="quotes" Escape double quotes with backslashes (\"), does not change other characters. This type does not protect against cross-site scripting. type="url"
      type="moderate" Encode special characters into HTML entities for moderate cross-site scripting protection: "<", ">", single quote (') and double quote (") are encoded. Useful to allow TWiki variables in comment boxes. type="url"
      type="safe" Encode special characters into HTML entities for cross-site scripting protection: "<", ">", "%", single quote (') and double quote (") are encoded. type="url"
      type="entity" Encode special characters into HTML entities, like a double quote into &#034;. Does not encode newline (\n) or linefeed (\r). type="url"
      type="entity"
      extra=" $n$r"
      For type="entity" only, use the extra parameter to encode additional characters to HTML numeric entities. Formatting tokens can be used, such as "$n" for newline. Note that type="entity" extra=" $n$r" is equivalent to type="html". type="url"
      extra=""
      type="html" Encode special characters into HTML entities. In addition to type="entity", it also encodes space, \n and \r. Useful to encode text properly in HTML input fields. See equivalent ENTITY. type="url"
      type="json" Escape double quotes and backslashes with backslashes (\" and \\, respectively), escape non-printable characters with hex code \u0000 ... \u001F, does not change other characters. Use this to properly escape text for a JSON string. Example result: This is a string with \"quoted\" and \\backslashed\\ text. type="url"
      type="csv" Escape single quotes and double quotes by repeating them, other characters do not change. Use this to properly escape fields in CSV reports that output comma-separated values, such as "field 1","field 2 with ''single'' and ""double"" quotes". type="url"
      newline="..." Replace a newline with the specified value before encoding.
      Please note that newline="<br/>" does not bring <br/> to the output because < and > are encoded (except with the quotes and csv types). To have <br/> in the output, you need to specify newline="$br". However, newline="$br" does not work in combination with type="url" (the defautl type). This shouldn't be a problem because it's very rare to need to have <br/> encoded in a URL.
      In addition to $br, $n has a special meaning in a newline parameter value - $n results in a newline in the output.
      This parameter is expected to be used in combination with the moderate, safe, entity, or html type. With the other types, it causes unuseful results.
       
    • Examples:
      • %ENCODE{"spaced name"}% expands to spaced%20name
      • %ENCODE{"spaced name" type="entity" extra=" "}% expands to spaced&#32;name
    • Notes:
      • Values of HTML input fields should be encoded as "html". A shorter %ENTITY{any text}% can be used instead of the more verbose %ENCODE{ "any text" type="html" }%.
        Example: <input type="text" name="address" value="%ENTITY{any text}%" />
      • Double quotes in strings must be escaped when passed into other TWiki variables.
        Example: %SEARCH{ "%ENCODE{ "string with "quotes"" type="quotes" }%" noheader="on" }%
      • Use type="moderate", type="safe", type="entity" or type="html" to protect user input from URL parameters and external sources against cross-site scripting (XSS). type="html" is the safest mode, but some TWiki applications might not work. type="safe" provides a safe middle ground, type="moderate" provides only moderate cross-site scripting protection.

    ENTITY{string} -- encode a string to HTML entities

    • Encode "special" characters to HTML entities. Useful to encode text properly for HTML input fields.
    • Encoded characters:
      • all non-printable ASCII characters below space, including newline ("\n") and linefeed ("\r")
      • Space
      • HTML special characters "<", ">", "&", single quote (') and double quote (")
      • TWiki special characters "%", "[", "]", "@", "_", "*", "=" and "|"
    • Syntax: %ENTITY{string}%
    • Example: %ENTITY{text with "quotes" and
      newline}%
      expands to text&#32;with&#32;&#34;quotes&#34;&#32;and&#10;newline
    • Notes:
      • To protect against cross-site scripting (XSS), always entity encode text intended for HTML input fields. This is especially true if text is received dynamically via URLPARAM or the like.
        Example: <input type="text" name="address" value="%ENTITY{any text}%" />
      • %ENTITY{string}% is roughly equivalent to %ENCODE{ "string" type="html" }%, but the latter cannot handle strings that have double quotes embedded in it.

    ENV{"varname"} -- inspect the value of an environment variable

    • Returns the current value of the environment variable in the CGI (Common Gateway Interface) environment. This is the environment that the TWiki scripts run in on the web server.
    • Note: For security reasons, only those variables whose names match the regular expression in {AccessibleENV} in the Security Settings/Miscellaneous section of configure can be displayed. Any other variable will just be shown as an empty string, irrespective of its real value.
    • Example: %ENV{MOD_PERL}% displays as: not set
    • If a variable is undefined (as against being set to the empty string) it will be returned as not set.

      newline="$br" Convert newlines in textarea to other delimiters. Variable $br expands to <br /> tag, and $n to a newline. Other text is encoded based on encode parameter. no conversion
      encode="html" Encode special characters into HTML entities. If a FORMFIELD is passed into an HTML form field it should be encoded as "html". Additional encodings available: encode="quote", encode="moderate", encode="safe", encode="entity", encode="url" and encode="csv". See ENCODE for details. "" (no encoding)
    • Example: %FORMFIELD{"ProjectName" topic="Projects.SushiProject" default="(not set)" alttext="ProjectName field not found"}%
    • Example: %FORMFIELD{"Title" topic="%INCLUDINGTOPIC%" }%
      • Note: Specify topic="%INCLUDINGTOPIC%" if you have a base topic that includes a report topic, and in the report topic you want to reference a field of the base topic
    • Example: <input type="text" name="Address" value="%FORMFIELD{ "Address" encode="html" }%" />

    FOURCOLUMNS -- responsive four-column page layout

    • Write %FOURCOLUMNS% ...text... %ENDCOLUMNS% to get a page layout with four columns. The layout is responsive, e.g. it automatically adjusts to a lower number of columns (4 => 3 => 2 => 1) depending on the window width or screen width of the device used. The 300 pixels minimum width of a column determines the number of columns shown. Embedded images scale down automatically to the width of the screen if needed.

      "http://..." A full qualified URL, i.e. %INCLUDE{"http://twiki.org:80/index.html"}%. Supported content types are text/html and text/plain by default. See allowanytype.
      IDEA! if the URL resolves to an attachment file on the server this will automatically translate to a server-side include.
       
      attachment="filename.ext" Include the specified attachment instead of topic text. The attachment content is subject to processing just like when topic text is included. For example, text up to %STARTINCLUDE% is excluded. When including an attachment, you can do without topic specification - %INCLUDE{attachment="filename.ext"}% works, which results in including the attachment of the same topic.  
      allowanytype="on" Suppress the content type checking in including the web page specified by a URL. disabled
      charset="CHARSET" Specify the charset of the included content so that a proper charset conversion happens when it's different from the site charset. Needless to say, this works for a TWiki topic, a topic attachment, and a content specified with a URL. This parameter overrides otherwise specified or implied charset. none
      pattern="..." Include a subset of a topic or a web page. Specify a RegularExpression that scans from start ('^') to end and contains the text you want to keep in parenthesis, e.g., pattern="^.*?(from here.*?to here).*". IncludeTopicsAndWebPages has more. none
      headingoffset="2" Adjust the level of headings in the included topic. A "2" or "+2" increases the level by two, e.g. a ---+ H1 turns into a ---+++ H3. Positive and negative values are supported. Adjusted min and max levels are H1 and H6, respectively. no adjustment
      hidetoc="on" Remove %TOC% in included content. Useful to show table of contents in individual topics, while suppressing them if included in a big master document. TOC_HIDE_IF_
      INCLUDED
      setting
      rev="2" Include a previous topic revision; N/A for URLs top revision
      raw="on" (for HTTP inclusion) When a page is included via HTTP, normally ZIVwiki will process it, doing the following: 1) Alter relative links to point back to originating host, 2) Remove some basic HTML tags (html, head, body, script) and finally 3) Remove newlines from HTML tags spanning multiple lines. If you prefer to include exactly what is in the source of the originating page set this to on. raw="on" is short for disableremoveheaders="on", disableremovescript="on", disableremovebody="on", disablecompresstags="on" and disablerewriteurls="on". disabled
      raw="on" (for topic or attachment inclusion) When a topic is included, normally TWiki variables in the included topic are expanded in the context of the inlcluded topic. If raw="on" is specified, that variable expansion does not happen. You may wonder what's that for and what are the implications, which are found out on IncludeTopicRaw.
      Because of the "in the raw" nature of the parapmeter, if it's specified, parameters such as encode, headingoffset, hidetoc, newline, nofinalnewline, and section are ignored.
      disabled
      literal="on" While using the raw option will indeed include the raw content, the included content will still be processed and rendered like regular topic content. To disable parsing of the included content, set the literal option to "on". disabled
      nofinalnewline="on" Delete the new line at the end of the result if exists disabled
      newline="$br" Convert newlines in textarea to other delimiters. Variable $br expands to <br /> tag, and $n to a newline. Other text is encoded based on encode parameter. no conversion
      encode="html" Encode special characters into HTML entities. If a FORMFIELD is passed into an HTML form field it should be encoded as "html". Additional encodings available: encode="quote", encode="moderate", encode="safe", encode="entity" and encode="url". See ENCODE for details. no encoding
      disableremoveheaders="on" Bypass stripping headers from included HTML (everything until first </head> tag) disabled
      disableremovescript="on" Bypass stripping all <script> tags from included HTML disabled
      disableremovebody="on" Bypass stripping the </body> tag and everything around over and below it disabled
      disablecompresstags="on" Bypass replacing newlines in HTML tags with spaces. This compression step rewrites unmatched <'s into &lt; entities unless bypassed disabled
      disablerewriteurls="on" Bypass rewriting relative URLs into absolute ones disabled
      disablefixlinks="on" Bypass fixing WikiWord links if include is done across webs. Fixing links in included text such as from SomeLink to Otherweb.SomeLink is usually desirable so that links in included text still point to the same target disabled
      warn="off" Warn if topic include fails: Fail silently (if off); output default warning (if set to on); else, output specific text (use $topic for topic name) %INCLUDEWARNING% preferences setting
      section="name" Includes only the specified named section, as defined in the included topic by the STARTSECTION and ENDSECTION variables. Nothing is shown if the named section does not exists. section="" is equivalent to not specifying a section  
      PARAMONE="val 1"
      PARAMTWO="val 2"
      Any other parameter will be defined as a variable within the scope of the included topic. The example parameters on the left will result in %PARAMONE% and %PARAMTWO% being defined within the included topic. A default value for a variable can be specified in the included topic in case the corresponding parameter is not specified, such as %PARAMONE{ default="..." }%  
    • Security Considerations:
      • The ability to INCLUDE arbitrary URLs, such as %INCLUDE{"http://www.google.com/"}% is turned off by default. To turn this on, ask your TWiki administrator to enable the {INCLUDE}{AllowURLs} flag in the Security setup section of configure.
      • JavaScript in included web pages is filtered out as a security precaution per default. Disable filtering with raw or disableremovescript parameter.
    • Infinite INCLUDE loop prevention:
      • To prevent obvious infinite INCLUDE loop, %INCLUDE{"http://THIS_SERVER/.../THIS_WEB/THIS_TOPIC}% is detected and blocked.
      • If the server has aliases, $TWiki::cfg{UrlHostRegex} should be set so that it matches all possible server names. e.g.
        $TWiki::cfg{UrlHostRegex} = qr{http://(www\.)?domain\.com};
        
    • INCLUDE attachment:
      As described above, there are two ways to include an attachment. They are similar, but behave slightly differently.
      • attachment="filename.ext"
        This works in the same manner as ordinary topic text inclusion. %STARTINCLUDE% and %STOPINCLUDE% in the attachment are observed. The section parameter is observed. The variables are expanded in the context of the topic having the attachment. For example, %TOPIC% is expanded to the name of the topic having the attachment.
      • Specifying the URL of an attachment. (e.g. %INCLUDE{%ATTACHURL%/foo.txt}%)
        The attachment content is processed in the same manner as when data is retrieved from another web server. Unless raw="on" is specified, the content of <body>...</body> is extracted, all occurrences of <script>...</script> are removed. Topic context change doesn't happen because in general inclusion via HTTP doesn't cause topic context change.

    MAKETEXT -- translate text using TWiki's I18N infrastructure

    • Text in MAKETEXT is translated into another language at page view time if the user activates a language other than the default English language.
    • Syntax: %MAKETEXT{"string" args="..."}%
    • Supported parameters:
      Parameter Description Default
      "text" or string="text" The text to be displayed. none
      args="param1, param2" a comma-separated list of arguments to be interpolated in the string, replacing the [_N] placeholders in it. none
    • Examples:
      • %MAKETEXT{string="Notes:"}%
        expands to
        Notes:
      • %MAKETEXT{"If you have any questions, please contact [_1]." args="%WIKIWEBMASTER%"}%
        expands to
        If you have any questions, please contact wwwadmin@uni-muenster.de.
      • %MAKETEXT{"Did you want to ~[~[[_1]~]~[reset [_2]'s password~]~]?" args="%SYSTEMWEB%.ResetPassword, %WIKINAME%"}%
        expands to
        Did you want to reset TWikiGuest's password?
    • Notes:
      • TWiki will translate the string to the current user's language only if it has such string in its translation table for that language.
      • Ampersands (&) followed by one letter (one of a...z, A...Z -- say, X) in the translatable string will be translated to <span class='twikiAccessKey'>X</span>. This is used to implement access keys. If you want to write an actual amperstand that stays just before a letter, write two consecutive amperstands (&&): they will be transformed in just one.
      • Square brackets ~[ and ~] in the text have a special meaning and need to be escaped using ~[ and ~], respectively.
      • Translatable string starting with underscores (_) are reserved. You must not use translatable phrases starting with an underscore.
      • Make sure that the translatable string is constant. Specially, do not include %VARIABLES% inside the translatable strings - string would not get translated because variables get expanded before the %MAKETEXT{...}% itself is handled.

    MAROON -- start maroon colored text

    MDREPO -- retrieve data from metadata repository

    • Attention: This variable works only if MetadataRepository is in use. Otherwise, it always returns a zero length string.
    • This retrieves data from the specified metadata repository table.
    • Syntax: %MDREPO{ "table" ...}% (generic form), %MDREPO{ web="..." ...}% (web specific form)
    • Parameters (generic form without web="..." parameter):
      Parameter Description Default
      "..." Specify the table to retrieve This or below is required
      table="..." (Alternative to above) This or above is required
      separator="..." The separator string of records "$n" (new line)
      format="..." Format of one record. It may contain the following items. In addtion, the standard special tokens are handled accordingly.
      Item Description
      $_ or $_() the record ID
      $__ or $__() The record value in the following format:
      FIELD_NAME=FIELD_VALUE FIELD_NAME=FIELD_VALUE ...
      $marker or $marker() Expands to marker for the item matching selection only
      $_FILED_NAME or $_FIELD_NAME() Please be noted that you need to put _ (underscore) in front of a field name. $_FIELD_NAME$ yields the value of the specified field. If the specified field does not exist in the record, it returns the null string ("").
      ?FIELD_NAME?IF_FIELD_HAS_VALUE? If the specified field has value and it's neither 0 nor the null string (""), it's evaluated as IF_FIELD_HAS_VALUE. Otherwise, it's evaluated as the null string. This is like q/.../ in Perl. A non-word character following ?FIELD_NAME becomes the terminator; i.e. you can write: ?FIELD_NAME:IF_TRUE:
      Specifically, the following characters can be used as the delimiter: ! # % ' / : ? @ ^ ` | ~
      = is excluded because it clashes with a parameter specification in a URL (?name=value).
      ?!FIELD_NAME?IF_FIELD_HAS_NO_VALUE? Similar to above but it's opposite. If the field has value, it's evaluated as the null string. Otherwise, it's evaluated as IF_FIELD_HAS_NO_VALUE.
      $question Replaced with ? after the ?FIEL_DNAME and ?!FIELD_ANME constructs are processed.
      "| $_ | $__ |"
      selection="..." The record ID to be regarded as the selected. It affects how $marker in the format is evaluated. none
      marker="..." Text for $marker in the format if the item matches selection "selected"
      filter="..." The regular expression of record IDs to filter records. Matching is case-insensitive none
      exclude="..." Comma separated list of record IDs to be excluded. You can use regular expression. If you specify Trash\d*, then Trash, Trash1, Trash2, ... are exluded but LightTrash and TrashBag are not excluded none
    • Example: %MDREPO{"webs" filter="^A" format="| $_ | $_admin | $_master |"}%
      This would show the metadata of webs whose names start with A.
    • Paramerers (web specific form):
      Parameter Description Default
      web="..." Specify the web. If it's a subweb, the corresponding top level web is specified This is required
      "..." Specify the format of the return value in the same manner as the format parameter in the generic form $__
      default="..." Specify the value to be returned when the specified or implied top level web does not exist in MDREPO "" (null string)
    • Example: %MDREPO{web="Foo/Bar" "$_admin"}%
      This would show the admin field of the Foo web.

    META -- displays meta-data

    • Provided mainly for use in templates, this variable generates the parts of the topic view that relate to meta-data (attachments, forms etc.) The formfield item is the most likely to be useful to casual users.
    • Syntax: %META{ "item" ...}%
    • Parameters:
      Item Options Description
      "formfield" name="...": name of the field. The field value can be shortened as described in FormattedSearch for $formfield.
      newline="...": by default, each newline character will be rewritten to <br /> to allow metadata that contains newlines to be used in tables, etc. $n indicates a newline character.
      bar="...": by default, each vertical bar is rewritten to an HTML entity so as to not be mistaken for a table separator.
      encode="type": have the value encoded in the specified type. Possible types are the same as ENCODE's. If this is specified, newline and bar options are ignored.
      topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%".
      Show a single form field
      "form" topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". Generates the table showing the form fields. See Form Templates
      "attachments" all="on" to show hidden attachments.
      title="..." to show a title - only if attachments are displayed.
      template="..." to use a custom template for the rendering of attachments; default attachtables is used.
      topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%".
      Generates the list of attachments
      "moved" topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%". Details of any topic moves
      "parent" dontrecurse="on": By default recurses up tree, this has some cost.
      nowebhome="on": Suppress WebHome.
      prefix="...": Prefix that goes before parents, but only if there are parents, default "".
      format="...": Format string used to display each parent topic where $web expands to the web name, and $topic expands to the topic name; default: "[[$web.$topic][$topic]]"
      suffix="...": Suffix, only appears if there are parents; default "".
      separator="...": Separator between parents; default " > ".
      topic="...": Get meta info of "Topic" or "Web.Topic"; default "%BASEWEB%.%BASETOPIC%".
      Generates the parent link
    • Attention: The base topic, not the current topic, is used if %META{}% is placed in an included topic. Add a topic="%WEB%.%TOPIC%" parameter if you need meta info of the current topic.

    S -- red star icon

    SCRIPTNAME -- name of current script

    SCRIPTSUFFIX -- script suffix

    SCRIPTURL -- base URL of TWiki scripts

    SCRIPTURL{"script"} -- URL of TWiki script

    • Expands to the URL of the specified script. Optionally, you can specify a web and/or a topic. In that case, the URL of the script for the specified web and topic is returned.
    • If ReadOnlyAndMirrorWebs is in effect and a web is specified, whether the web is a slave or not is taken into account. For a slave web, with scripts edit, save, attach, upload, and rename, the URL on the master site is returned.
      For the other scripts, if the master="on" parameter is specified, the URL on the master site is returned.
    • Syntax: %SCRIPTURL{"script" ...}%
    • Supported parameters:
      Parameter: Description: Default:
      "script" The name of the script  
      web="WEB" Specifies a web When a topic name is specified and a web is not, the current web is assumed
      topic="TOPIC" or topic="WEB.TOPIC" Specifies a topic or both a web and a topic  
      master="on" A URL on the master site is needed or not off
    • If web="WEB" is specified but topic is not specified, the resulting URL ends with WEB.
    • Example: To get the authenticated version of the current topic you can write %SCRIPTURL{"viewauth"}%/%WEB%/%TOPIC% which expands to https://www.uni-muenster.de/ZIVwiki/bin/viewauth/TWiki/TWikiVariablesSearch. It can be written %SCRIPTURL{"viewauth" topic="%TOPIC%"}% as well.
    • Example: Let's assume this site has a web named 'Flowers' whose master site is http://florawiki/cgi-bin. Then %SCRIPTURL{"edit" web="Flowers"}% expands to http://florawiki/cgi-bin/edit/Flowers. This is because the 'Flower' web on this site is a slave and editing needs to happen on the master site.
    • Example: Asuming above, %SCRIPTURL{"view" web="Flowers" master="on"}% expands to http://florawiki/cgi-bin/view/Flowers. The view script works on a slave site, but master="on" parameter forces to yield the master site URL.
    • Example: How to link to another topic with a URL parameter: [[%SCRIPTURL{view}%/%WEB%/MyQuery?food=sushi][Sushi]]
    • Note: In most cases you should use %SCRIPTURLPATH{"script"}% instead, as it works with URL rewriting much better

    • Supported parameters:
      Parameter: Description: Default:
      "script" The name of the script.  
      web="WEB" Specifies a web When a topic name is specified and a web is not, the current web is assumed
      topic="TOPIC" or topic="WEB.TOPIC" Specifies a topic or both a web and a topic  
      master="on" A URL on the master site is needed or not. off
    • If web="WEB" is specified but topic is not specified, the resulting URL ends with WEB.
    • Example: %SCRIPTURLPATH{"view"}% expands to "/ZIVwiki/bin/view" (This might be a null string. Hence surrounded by double quotes)
    • Example: %SCRIPTURLPATH{"view" web="%WEB%"}% expands to /ZIVwiki/bin/view/TWiki
    • Example: %SCRIPTURLPATH{"view" topic="%TOPIC%"}% expands to /ZIVwiki/bin/view/TWiki/VarSCRIPTURLPATH2
    • Example: Let's assume this site has a web named 'Flowers' whose master site is http://florawiki/cgi-bin. Then %SCRIPTURLPATH{"edit" web="Flowers"}% expands to http://florawiki/cgi-bin/edit/Flowers. This is because the 'Flower' web on this site is a slave and editing needs to happen on the master site.

      web="all"
      Comma-separated list of webs to search. You can specifically \*exclude\* webs from an all search using a minus sign - for example, web="all,-Secretweb". The special word all means all webs that do not have the NOSEARCHALL variable set to on in their WebPreferences. Note that TWikiAccessControls are respected when searching webs; it is much better to use them than NOSEARCHALL. Current web
      topic="WebPreferences"
      topic="*Bug"
      Limit search to topics: A topic, a topic with asterisk wildcards, or a list of topics separated by comma. Note this is a list of topic names and must not include web names. All topics in a web
      excludetopic="Web*"
      excludetopic="WebHome, WebChanges"
      Exclude topics from search: A topic, a topic with asterisk wildcards, or a list of topics separated by comma. Note this is a list of topic names and must not include web names. None

      type="query"
      Control how the search is performed when scope="text" or scope="all"
      keyword: use Google-like controls as in soap "web service" -shampoo; searches word parts: using the example, topics with "soapsuds" will be found as well, but topics with "shampoos" will be excluded
      word: identical to keyword but searches whole words: topics with "soapsuds" will not be found, and topics with "shampoos" will not be excluded
      literal: search for the exact string, like web service
      regex: use a RegularExpression search like soap;web service;!shampoo; to search on whole words use \bsoap\b
      query: query search of form fields and other meta-data, like (Firstname='Emma' OR Firstname='John') AND Lastname='Peel'

      sort="parent"
      sort="parent(99)"
      sort="formfield(name)"
      sort="parent,
       formfield(name)"
      Sort the search results by:
      topic: topic name,

      modified: last modified time,
      editby: last editor,
      parent: parent topic name,
      parent(N): parent breadcrumb up to indicated level,
      formfield(NAME): named TWikiForms field,
      • or a combination to sort by more than one field using a comma list.
      The sorting is done web by web; if you want to sort across webs, create a formatted table and sort it with TablePlugin's initsort. Note that dates are sorted most recent date last (i.e at the bottom of the table). Legacy order parameter is used in case sort is not specified.
      "topic"
      reverse="on"
      reverse="off, on"
      Reverse the direction of the search. Specify a comma list of on, off tokens to toggle direction by sort field. If sort has more fields than reverse tokens, the state of the last reverse token is taken for the remaining fields. "off"
      start="0"
      start="20"
      Specify the number of results to skip. This is done after sorting if sort parameter is specified. This is intended for pagination of results. If this parameter is specified, %NTOPICS% in the search template is replaced with the number of topics matched. Without this parameter, %NTOPICS% doesn't exceed the limit value. "0"
      limit="all"
      limit="16"
      Limit the number of results returned. This is done after sorting if sort parameter is specified. This parameter specifing the number of results remains the same in the presense of the start parameter. Assuming there are more than 20 results matched, start="10" limit="10" results in 11th to 20th results are returned "all"
      date="..." limits the results to those pages with latest edit time in the given time interval. All results
      createdate="..." similar to date but it's about create time instead of last edit. You can specify both date and createdate, in which case topics matching both conditions are shown. All results
      casesensitive="on" Case sensitive search Ignore case
      bookview="on" BookView search, e.g. show complete topic text Show topic summary
      nonoise="on" Shorthand for nosummary="on" nosearch="on" nototal="on" zeroresults="off" noheader="on" noempty="on" Off
      nosummary="on" Show topic title only Show topic summary
      nosearch="on" Suppress search string Show search string
      noheader="on" Suppress default search header
      Topics: Changed: By: , unless a header is explicitly specified
      Show default search header, unless search is inline and a format is specified (Cairo compatibility)
      nototal="on" Do not show number of topics found Show number
      zeroresults="off" Suppress all output if there are no hits zeroresults="on", displays: "Number of topics: 0"
      noempty="on" Suppress results for webs that have no hits. Show webs with no hits
      headingoffset="2" Adjust the level of headings in text of topics found, taking effect in $text and $pattern() of a FormattedSearch. A "2" or "+2" increases the level by two, e.g. a ---+ H1 turns into a ---+++ H3. Positive and negative values are supported. Adjusted min and max levels are H1 and H6, respectively. no adjustment
      header="..."
      format="..."
      footer="..."
      Custom format results. See FormattedSearch for usage, variables & examples Results in table
      default="..." Default message if there are no hits in a web. See FormattedSearch for usage, variables & examples No output
      expandvariables="on" Expand variables before applying a FormattedSearch on a search hit. Useful to show the expanded text, e.g. to show the result of a SpreadSheetPlugin %CALC{}% instead of the formula Raw text
      multiple="on" Multiple hits per topic. Each hit can be formatted. The last token is used in case of a regular expression ";" and search Only one hit per topic
      nofinalnewline="on" If on, the search variable does not end in a line by itself. Any text continuing immediately after the search variable on the same line will be rendered as part of the table generated by the search, if appropriate. off
      recurse="on" Recurse into subwebs, if subwebs are enabled. off
      separator=", " Line separator between search hits. Specify format="$topic" separator=", " to get a comma separated list of topic names. The following variables can be used in the separator value: $n expands to a newline, $br expands to a <br /> line break tag. "$n" (Newline)
      newline="$br" Line separator within a search hit. Useful if you want to put multi-line content into a table cell, for example if the format="" parameter contains a $pattern() that captures more than one line, or contains a $formfield() that returns a multi-line textfield. The following variables can be used in the newline value: $n expands to a newline, $br expands to a <br /> line break tag. "$n" (Newline)
      encode="html" Encode special characters into HTML entities. If a FORMFIELD is passed into an HTML form field it should be encoded as "html". Additional encodings available: encode="quote", encode="moderate", encode="safe", encode="entity" and encode="url". See ENCODE for details. no encoding
    • Example: %SEARCH{"wiki" web="Main" scope="topic"}%
    • Example with format: %SEARCH{"FAQ" scope="topic" nosearch="on" nototal="on" header="| *Topic: * | *Summary: * |" format="| $topic | $summary |"}% (displays results in a table with header - details)
    • HELP Hint: If the TWiki:Plugins.TablePlugin is installed, you may set a %TABLE{}% variable just before the %SEARCH{}% to alter the output of a search. Example: %TABLE{ tablewidth="90%" }%

      newline="$br" Convert newlines in textarea to other delimiters. Variables $br (for <br /> tag), $n (for newline) are expanded. Other text is encoded based on encode parameter. no conversion
      encode="off" Turn off encoding. See important security note below encode="safe"
      encode="quote" Escape double quotes with backslashes (\"), does not change other characters; required when feeding URL parameters into other TWiki variables. This encoding does not protect against cross-site scripting. encode="safe"
      encode="moderate" Encode special characters into HTML entities for moderate cross-site scripting protection: "<", ">", single quote (') and double quote (") are encoded. Useful to allow TWiki variables in comment boxes. encode="safe"
      encode="safe" Encode special characters into HTML entities for cross-site scripting protection: "<", ">", "%", single quote (') and double quote (") are encoded. (this is the default)
      encode="entity" Encode special characters into HTML entities. See ENCODE for details. encode="safe"
      encode="html" Encode special characters into HTML entities. In addition to encode="entity", it also encodes space, newline (\n) and linefeed (\r). Useful to encode text properly in HTML input fields. encode="safe"

      multiple="on"
      multiple="[[$item]]"
      If set, gets all selected elements of a <select multiple="multiple"> tag. A format can be specified, with $item indicating the element, e.g. multiple="Option: $item" first element
      separator=", " Separator between multiple selections. Only relevant if multiple is specified "\n" (newline)
      format="..." Format the result. $value expands to the URL parameter. If multiple is specified, $value expands to the result of the concatenated items. "$value"
      default="..." Default value in case parameter is empty or missing. The format parameter is not applied. empty string
    • Example: %URLPARAM{"skin"}% returns print for a .../view/TWiki/TWikiVariablesSearch?skin=print URL
    • ALERT! Notes:
      • IMPORTANT: There is a risk that this variable can be misused for cross-site scripting (XSS) if the encoding is turned off. The encode="safe" is the default, it provides a safe middle ground. The encode="entity" is more aggressive, but some TWiki applications might not work.
      • URL parameters passed into HTML form fields should be encoded as "html".
        Example: <input type="text" name="address" value="%URLPARAM{ "address" encode="html" }%" />
      • Double quotes in URL parameters must be escaped when passed into other TWiki variables.
        Example: %SEARCH{ "%URLPARAM{ "search" encode="quotes" }%" noheader="on" }%
      • When used in a template topic, this variable will be expanded when the template is used to create a new topic. See TWikiTemplates#TemplateTopicsVars for details.
      • Watch out for TWiki internal parameters, such as rev, skin, template, topic, web; they have a special meaning in TWiki. Common parameters and view script specific parameters are documented at TWikiScripts.
      • If you have %URLPARAM{ in the value of a URL parameter, it will be modified to %<nop>URLPARAM{. This is to prevent an infinite loop during expansion.

    VAR{"NAME" ...} -- get a preference value from another web or topic and more

    • Gets the value of a variable in various manners.
      • If the topic parameter is specified, it gets the value of the specified preferences variable in the specified topic. Please note that the WebPreferences of the web of the specified topic is not examined. So the returned value may not be the same as the value of the variable when the specified topic is viewed.
      • If the topic parameter is not specified and the web parameter is specified, it gets the value of the specified preferences variable in the specified web, which means the specified web's WebPreferences is examined for the variable.
      • If the neither the topic nor web parameter is specified, it gets the value of the specified variable in the current context -- the variable can either be a preferences variable or a session variable but cannot be a tag with a tag handler (e.g. %GMTIME%).
        %VAR{"NAME"}% is similar to %NAME%, but they differ if NAME is undefined, in which case %VAR{"NAME"}% is expanded to null (zero width string) while %NAME% remains as is (%NAME%). %VAR{"NAME"}% yields the same value as %IF{"defined NAME" then="$percntNAME$percnt"}% if NAME is a variable, but the latter is cubmersome.
    • Syntax: %VAR{"NAME" ...}%
    • Supported parameters:
      Parameter: Description: Default:
      "Variable" The name of the variable to be retrieved. If not specified, %VAR{...}% is expanded to null. required
      topic="Web.Topic" Specifies the topic in which the specified preferences vaiable is fetched. none
      topic="Topic" Same as above, but the web is specified specified explicitly with the web parameter or the current web is specified. none
      web="Web" Specifies the web in which the specified preferences variable is fetched. none
      default="Value" Specifies the value to be returned if the specified variable is undefined. "" (null string)
      ignorenull="on" If specified, a null string ("") value is regarded as undefined. This affects whether or not the value specified by the default parameter is returned. "off"
    • Example 1: To get the members of TWikiAdminGroup, %VAR{"GROUP" topic="%USERSWEB%.TWikiAdminGroup"}%, which expands to AdministrationInformationssysteme.
    • Example 2: To get %WEBBGCOLOR% of the Main web write %VAR{"WEBBGCOLOR" web="Main"}%, which expands to #FFEFA6
    • Example 3: Let's say you are writing the "foo" skin. And you want to have the users specify a string inserted in the head tag with FOOSKIN_HTML_HEAD_HOOK. That can be achived by the following:
      %VAR{"FOOSKIN_HTML_HEAD_HOOK" default="<nop>" ignorenull="on"}%
