Creating a SemanticForm and using tags
Hi guys hope you can help. If I can get this working, this will be a MAJOR thing for us :>)

Example: Lets say I have an extension called NewTaskTag, which lets you insert a  into a wiki page, then you manually insert parameters as follows..

 Task = This task completed at.. Time = 6pm Priority = Severe Updated by =   Task = Time = Priority = Updated by = 

The extension then renders the html into a table like format.

Because this is a manual job, I wanted to make it easier to do this.

So, Ive installed Semantic Mediawiki along with SemanticForms.

These are great, but I wanted to know if you could use a form to do the above instead of using the normal edit option with Mediawiki.

The problem I see is how will the form know how to interpret and pass the entered bits/eg. the fields to the extension, and how would you say, in a form, place a filed to say to use ?

To further clarify what Im trying to say is the following.

If I want to use the  in a wiki page, I just go to a new page, click on Edit, and enter the following:

 Task = Time = Priority = Updated by =   Task = Time = Priority = Updated by = 

I then complete each line, eg.Task = This new task, Time = 6pm, etc etc.

What Id like to do is the following:

Create a new form that has this format:

Task: [___ Text Box for Task entry___] Time: [___ Text Box for Time entry___] Priority: [___ Text Box for Priority entry___] Updated By: [___ Text Box for Updated By entry___]

All the user would have to do is then input in the text boxes the required data, then the  would do the rest. The questions I have though are:

1)How would the form know that each text box is actually in the format: Task = Time = etc etc

And that all these text boxes are enclosed in the  tag?

2) How could you create a form that automatically enters a  tag, then the required text boxes, with each one corresponding to a parameter required for the newtasktag, then a closing ? If I can get this working by you wonderful gurus, this would totally change for the better the way we use Mediawiki!

Thanks guys in advance.

Anchors in syntax conflict
There seems to be a small issue where links (including interwiki) with section linking anchors such as Help:ParserFunctions which renders as M:Help:ParserFunctions will confuse with Semantic linking, and an interwiki link such as Help:ParserFunctions will fail with the Semantic MediaWiki extension installed. --Zven 01:22, 17 November 2007 (UTC)

How do I get Simile Timeline working with Semantic MW?
Hi, I have SMW extension installed and would love to get the Simile timeline function working, but can not seem to find exact instructions. Would you know please? Thanks 84.24.129.223
 * See the demo
 * And in my experience, if the setting "$smwgQDefaultNamespaces" is wrong, you will not get timeline.--Roc michael 23:58, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
