It used to work.....

[Stephen Wilson]

I have a button which generates two random numbers and then evaluates the sum and returns that value to a field...

Or at least it used to...

Now it returns the value of the previous sum.

Before

After

The old data tiddler is here

The statans field should be the sum of the other two.

The code is the same...

WHATS GOING ON!!!!!  *sobs*

<$button>Random Question
<$action-setfield $tiddler="data" $field="statrand1" $value=
<<eval datatiddler:"data" cell:"random1">>/>
<$action-setfield $tiddler="data" $field="statrand2" $value=
<<eval datatiddler:"data" cell:"random1">>/>
<$action-setfield $tiddler="data" $field="statans" $value=
<<eval datatiddler:"data" cell:"ans">>/>
</$button>

Cheers :)

Anyone??

This isn't much help. The two TW's are  different versions. If I upgrade your failing TW to 5.1.15, then the math problem goes away.

BUT, now your eval1 doesn't show a cell where to enter an answer.

Possibly you could upgrade your 5.1.14 pre-release to just 5.1.14, since that version seems to work with your plugins.
