The edit scipt understands the following parameters, typically supplied by HTML input fields:

Parameter: Description:

topic Name of topic to create. Can be set in a text field, or is set programmatically (e.g. with a sequential number)

onlywikiname If set, TWiki will complain if the topic name is not a WikiWord

templatetopic The name of the template topic, e.g. topic used to copy the initial content

topicparent Sets the parent topic

TopicClassification Assuming the template topic has a form with a field called "TopicClassification", it will set the value of the field

anyname Any parameter can passed to the new topic; if the template topic contains %URLPARAM{"anyname"}%, it will be replaced by its value

TIP: You can use the %WIKIUSERNAME% and %DATE% variables in your topic templates to include the signature of the person creating a new topic. The variables are expanded into fixed text when a new topic is created. The standard signature is:
-- %WIKIUSERNAME% - %DATE%

Line: 237 to 247

A drawback of referring to a master template is that you can only test a template from within TWiki, where the include variables are resolved. In the previous system, each template was a structurally complete HTML document with a .tmpl filename extension - it contained unresolved %VARIABLES%, but could still be previewed directly in a browser.
