Display variable passage in a popup?
I'm using this popup macro, which works fine-
I can type this and it works-
It shows the word "map", and when you click it you can view within a popup the 'map complex' passage.
Now I'm trying to make a popup that displays passages representing items in the order you found them. So you click "view items" and you get a popup which is the passage for "item 1" whichever that may be.
Passage1 sets up the array with some items
Passage 2 adds more items, which works fine, and makes a link to a passage representing the first item in the array (Revolver). However the popup code doesn't work since $items isn't really a passage. $items works fine.
"Error: the passage "Revolver" does not exist" in the popup. Revolver does exist, though.
This will be used for a glossary logging creatures and events and since they can happen in different order depending on your decision, I want to add them to an array and then have the popup let you click through them.
/*pop-up*/
Macro.add("popup", {
version : { major: 1, minor: 0, revision: 0 },
handler : function () {
if (this.args.length < 2) {
var errors = [];
if (this.args.length < 1) { errors.push("link text"); }
if (this.args.length < 2) { errors.push("passage name"); }
return this.error("no " + errors.join(" or ") + " specified");
}
var el = document.createElement("a"),
passage = this.args[1],
title;
el.innerHTML = this.args[0];
el.className = "link-internal macro-popup";
el.setAttribute("data-passage", passage);
title = el.textContent;
UI.addClickHandler(el, null, function (evt) {
var dialog = UI.setup(title, "popup");
new Wikifier(dialog, tale.get(passage).processText().trim());
});
this.output.appendChild(el);
}
});

Click to view <<popup "Map" "Map complex">>

[[$items]]
