About accessing the parser
Trying this, not working though.....not sure if it's a PHP5 thing
function myHook($input, $argv, &$parser) { $localParser = new Parser(); $output = $localParser->parse("<big>$input</big>", $parser->mTitle, $parser->mOptions); $text = $output->getText(); }
Tried returning that $text in my extension....no go Not sure if the reference there to the &$parser is valid
Any takers?

Hi all,
i'm going to keep hunting around for a fix for this problem -- i have not checked recent changelog entries to see if it is being addressed, but in
the
meantime, can someone point me in the direction of a fix? or something
about
sending stuff to the parser?
I read this part of the extensions FAQ
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki_extensions_FAQ#Templates_with_exten...
but there's no solution offered up.....
Stumbled upon this when I whipped together a little extension for myself only to find out it wouldn't work with the template I'm using it in
Thanks for any suggestions,
-- Chris

I am attempting to create a template in which all anyone needs to do to put a Google Map on a page is use a template with 3 variables (longitude, latitude, and description) using Evan Miller's Google Maps extension (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Emiller/ GoogleMapsExtension).
The only problem is, Mediawiki won't read the variables if they're inside the <googlemap></googlemap> extension tags.
You will have to modify the extension to feed the included text through the wiki parser.
I am definitely no expert or even novice at php...
This would seem to be beyond your scope, then. It sounds like an interesting project, but I have no extra time to help you right now! Perhaps someone else with an interest will want to craft a solution.
