Thread:Project:Support desk/Passing to an extension/reply (3)

That is to say, if I put this in a page, my extension works just fine and I can do whatever I need with the video.



But, I don't want the user to have to find the path to a file. I want them to be able to enter the tag like this and have that translated by the filepath parser function into the full path.



But the file attribute gets passed as a string (including the curly braces) to my tag extension. I want to return the path first and pass that to my extension. It seems that my tag extension is parsed first, before the parser function (filepath) has a chance to get processed. I thought making my tag get processed later would do the trick, but apparently that was wrong. Does that make sense?

Note, I also tried it like this with no better results:
