  • This page is so complicated that TransclusionHwoStyle was created to focus on the HwoStyle issues related to TransClusion.
  • It may be effective to remove the …Tests to a separate page as well.

  • More nextSteps can be incorporated here.
• 070219 finally used CommunityWiki successfully!
  • TransClusion generally works within Oddmuse systems.
    • It even worked with the SamRose wiki hive!
    • There are improvements to the rendering that could be incorporated, but it is quite useable for my purposes.
• 070218 added an internal wikiHive example.

    • this can be copied into the site where the reference exists, if that site needs to be self-contained (since it is likely to be removed to another server, per Lion.)
• review if it is possible to use TransClusion between the subSites in this hive.
  • if not, and if it may be helpful, introduce Lion to the ExternalTransclusion plugin we’ve developed for TiddlyWiki.

TransClusion (start) ...

Some difficulties that are apparent in this page, include…

• Included text is only partially rendered.
  • WikiWords are not rendered in the receiving location, even if they are legitimate entries in that nameSpace.
• See http://www.oddmuse.org/cgi-bin/wiki/Transclusion
• What other tests should be run before ‘reporting’ this?
  • …?
• TransclusionFrameStyles

• The Oddmuse software will include text into Cw:CommunityWiki from this site and from accessible external files.
• would it make sense to use both the text and the raw keywords?

This Wp:Bliki, being based on the OddMuse Ww:WikiEngine, provides a powerful implementation of this concept. See Om: Aggregate, …

Notes:

• ‘Edit.pageName’ is needed rather than editThisPage, for pages that are transcluded.
• One of the MicroContent benefits can be enhanced by using TransClusion to incorporate blocks into various different contexts.
  • Stress the point that the most recent version is ‘evergreen’, but that Version control can be used to resurrect ‘as of’ versions.
  • Since nested transClusion is possible, it becomes easy use intermediate pages to wrap blocks with LocalNames.

This 'janus.datafix.com\hwo\test.dcn' file is a test of the ability to import text from a URL.
* 070718 - confirmed that pretty links work [http://www.communitywiki.org/odd/HansWobbe/ToDay Bh:ToDay].
* http://www.datafix.com - long form URL addresses are rendered as links.
* Mb:RecentChanges shows that InterMap references are not rendered as links.
** http://www.communitywiki.org/en/RecentChanges
** Confirm the environments within which this may reasonably work.
*** try using an entry from the CommunityWiki InterMap
*** try using an entry from my InterMap in the wikiHive.
** Is the InterMap reference rendered, given that it is a LocalNames example?
* Let's keep it simple as possible.

textIncludeEnd

Rough notes:

• 061109 edit to trigger the reload of this page, after editing the external text.
• The HansWobbeM example uses <hr>s to frame its content.
  • It is possible to include the <hr><hr> delimiters within the transcluded page.
  • There are likely to be cases when the ‘frame’ should be external to the TransClusion.
• This page, being a TransClusion within at least one other, uses headings as an internal frame.
• The use of CSS will probably create a more effective solution.
• This page does requite an explicit edit in order to refresh the ‘include’ text.
  • Can this also be achieved with a browser Refresh action?
• It does not appear to be possible to nest a TransClusion within a Table cell.
  • Illustrate the value of this by posting a screen grab.
    • Perhaps a working html version can be created.
