I was wrong about Parser::parse - that *does* seem to parse the tags (wasn't calling getText) when passed with params 4 and 5 as false. However recursiveTagParse still doesn't work. But anyway I'm happy...

Hi,
Now I have implemented it as a parser function it looks much cleaner, but now I have a new problem - I cannot seem to call parser->recursiveTagParse or (Parser:parse for that matter) to process the template parameter - which is normal wiki text. The parameters just appear as flat text. The parser object is passed to the function, but doesn't seem to work the same. Am I missing something or is this a limitation of parser functions that recursiveTagParse can only be used by XML style extensions? If so I'll probably have to go back to the old method until the bug Simetrical pointed out has been fixed - though I guess I could try #tag (shudder)...

Thanks Jim,
I'll try that. Squiggly brackets ahoy!

Alex,
Instead of using a <tag>, you should make a {{#parserfunction:}}. The process is similar, but a parser function participates in a much more integrated way with the rest of the parsing process (allowing template parameters for example).
