Problem

I've made a small php-function that outputs something I need as a titlematch-parameter. It's actually for the DPL-calendar, where I want to show the next 5 events coming up in the remainder of this year and the next one.

I call the function with a tag like this: <getCalendarSpan/>

And right now it outputs the following: 2009_08%|2009_09%|2009_10%|2009_11%|2009_12%|2010%

So the following simple DPL-call should output just what I need:

{{#dpl: |titlematch=<getCalendarSpan/> }}

I've tried putting it in a template but I'm not getting any results. Any help would be appreciated.

I solved this myself by making my phpfunction an actual Parser Function and attaching a magic word to it. It's now invoked like this:

{{#getCalendarSpan}}

I hope no one wasted any time on my newbie issues :)

Just getting the hang of writing my own functions. Thanks anyway!

Maybe it would have helped if you had used the special angle brackets instead of the normal angle brackets.

{{#dpl: |titlematch=«getCalendarSpan/» }}

Can you try and let me know?
