My 'announcements' are actually job ads -- with a standard format that I need to use and feed to other apps.

I created a template in the fcktemplates.xml file.  Rather than have the user re-type the title which they just entered as the announcement title [TITLE], I thought I'd just display the contents of the [TITLE] token in the job ad.

I figured I'd just put '[TITLE]' in the template.  Result?: 'The text [TITLE]' displays.  Not the content of the token.

Obviously, this requires some bit of programming expertise I don't have.   Ideas?  Solutions?

- <Template title="NAOBI DC Jobs" image="JobAd_template.gif">
  <Description>Input form for Local DC Interpreting Jobs</Description>
- <Html>
<![CDATA[ 
				<table align="left" width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"><tr><td>
					<table class="Normal" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">
						<tbody>
						<tr>
							<td width="81">Category:</td>
							<td>Job</td>
						</tr>
						<tr>

							<td>[TITLE]</td>

you would need to change the bit of code that implements tokenreplace. Not sure even if this works, as it would require a chain of tokenreplace commands. Perhaps you would have to consider other modules to do what you need...

Definitely sounds like more work than I want to sign up for right now!  Thanks for the quick reply.

If you want to display data from a SQL Table, you may want to consider SQLGridSelectedView.  This free module supports templating and would allow you to place the individual record's column values where ever you want in the template.  You can find the module at www.tressleworks.ca.  There is a 40+ page user guide to help use the variaous feature such as templating ...  I
