The <option> tag needs a value attribute:

<option value="Benzin - Jahr">Benzin - Jahr</option>

Hi Mark this was an Part of the problem.

Thle code i have corrected

<$select tiddler='$:/SiteTitle' tooltip='select tiddler wich should will cloned'>
<$vars selection="tiddler">

<option value="Benzin - Jahr">Benzin</option>
<option value="Fahrzeugpflege - Jahr">Fahrzeugpflege</option>
<option value="Inspektionen und TÜV - Jahr">Inspektionen und TÜV</option>
<option value="Räder: Reifen und Felgen - Jahr">Räder: Reifen und Felgen</option>
<option value="Reparaturen und Wartung - Jahr">Reparaturen und Wartung</option>
<option value="Scheibenwischer - Jahr">Scheibenwischer</option>
<option value="Versicherung - Jahr">Versicherung</option>
<option  value="Zulassung - Jahr">Zulassung</option>

</$vars>
</$select>

<$button> clone selected tiddler
<$list filter=<<selection>

>>
<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" title=<<selection>>/>

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-close-tiddler" $param={{{[has[draft.of]field:draft.of<

<selection>>]}}}/>
</$list>
</$button>

i believe, the button-code are count the tiddlers and create new tiddlers so much this count.

i want to create 1 tiddler as an clone of the selected tiddler.
what is wrong to my code?

See code below.

<< ... >> is used for variables. Unfortunately, you can not use <$select> to set a variable. You can only set a field, including the text field.

The "action-sendmessage" needs the $param, not the title. What "$param" holds will vary depending on the message.

I don't think you can close the tiddler with the same button action  if you make it with tm-new-tiddler.

To make a tiddler without opening it, you will need either:

ActionCreateTiddlerWidget

or you will need action-setfield. If you use action-setfield then you will need to set all the fields of the target tiddler. You will also have to figure out a new title for the target tiddler.

Good luck!

<$select tiddler="$:/SiteTitle" tooltip="select tiddler which should will cloned" >

<option value="Benzin - Jahr">Benzin</option>
<option value="Fahrzeugpflege - Jahr">Fahrzeugpflege</option>
<option value="Inspektionen und TÜV - Jahr">Inspektionen und TÜV</option>
<option value="Räder: Reifen und Felgen - Jahr">Räder: Reifen und Felgen</option>
<option value="Reparaturen und Wartung - Jahr">Reparaturen und Wartung</option>
<option value="Scheibenwischer - Jahr">Scheibenwischer</option>
<option value="Versicherung - Jahr">Versicherung</option>
<option  value="Zulassung - Jahr">Zulassung</option>

</$select>

<$button> clone selected tiddler

<$action-sendmessage $message="tm-new-tiddler" $param={{$:/SiteTitle}}/>

<!-- <$action-sendmessage $message="tm-close-tiddler" $param={{{[has[draft.of]field:draft.of<<selection>>]}}}/> -->

</$button>

Mark you are great.

now i reflect  how i can  commit the license-plate of the car into the new tiddler as tag

it shoud be an inputfield and the value of the inputfield will be the tag

thanks
