Detail

The type=expandvariables option for Topic Templates goes too far in the case of %EDITTABLE%.

While %TABLE% is ignored, %EDITTABLE% is "expanded" out to an HTML form (an unusable HTML form),

%EDITTABLE% should be left alone when a portion of a template is copied with type=expandvariables set.

NOTE: As a workaround, I tried using %EDITTABLE%. That resulted in a literaql <nop> string in the result.

I also tried sending the %EDITTABLE% string as a URLPARM, assuming the URLPARAM would be expanded. Unfortunately, TWiki did the expansion twice (first expanding the %URLPARAM% and then the resulting %EDITTABLE%.)

Either expandvars should not continue expanding recursivety or there should be an option to control this. frown
