Earwigo.net, input and variables

[+bflentje]

Am I missing something? I am using Earwigo.net. I have an input object. I want to have a counter variable as part of the input's text, but the ~~ format is not resolving.

 

INPUT TEXT

Please enter the ~~var_codeIdxFriendly~~ code.

 

Anyone have any advice? Or a work around? Thanks for any help.

 

 

p.s. I also posted in the Earwigo.net Google group.

I was able to set the Input text by running a Lua statement ahead of calling the input. But I would have expected the "~~" method to work. It'd still be nice to know if that's by design or a bug.
