How to get into the title of a tiddler from variables?

[stevesuny]

I have:

\define showcomment($commenting-on$ $user$)
<hr>
1 - $user$<br>
2 - $commenting-on$<br>
<hr>
3 - <$view tiddler="$user$ on $commenting-on"/>
\end

For $user$ = steve and $commenting-on$ = "How do you do", then in another macro I've created the tiddler [[steve on How do you do]]

<$view tiddler="$user$ on $commenting-on$/> should work, in my view :) but doesn't.

Suggestions?

Thanks,

//steve.

Some syntax errors:

1) In the parameter list, do NOT use the $ delimiters... thus:

\define showcomment(commenting-on user)

2) In the <$view> widget, you are missing a closing "$"... thus:

3 - <$view tiddler="$user$ on $commenting-on$"/>

hope this helps,

Thanks, Eric.

That seems to work.
Much appreciated.
