What's wrong with this macro?

[Luca Dorigo]

I wanted to make a macro to quickly insert a table of contents of all the descendents of a given tiddler.

This is what I wrote:

\define toc-sel()

<div class="tc-table-of-contents">
<<toc-selective-expandable $(currentTiddler)$>>
</div>

\end

However when I use it in a tiddler (<<toc-sel>>), it gives me:

What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

Create a tiddler named: toc-sel

<div class="tc-table-of-contents">
<<toc-selective-expandable $(currentTiddler)$>>
</div>

Use it with

{{||toc-sel}}

and you are good to go. No macro needed.

have fun!

Thank you, that works indeed :)

Would you mind explaining what's wrong with my approach?

Probably you just need quotes around the argument; 

<<toc-selective-expandable "$(currentTiddler)$">>
