Status: RESOLVED INVALID

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

For some reason, I'm having trouble calling form data from within
"comment.txt.tmpl". In "create.html.tmpl", I added a drop-down menu
with the values "Yes" and "No" and named the menu "checkpriv".

    <select name="checkpriv">
      <option value="Yes">Yes</option>
      <option selected value="No">No</option>
    </select>

Then, in "comment.txt.tmpl" I added the line:

    Privacy Option: [% form.checkpriv %]

After asking around, somebody suggested I try:

    [% cgi.param("checkpriv") %]

Either way, when I report the bug, I can see "Privacy Option:" but, following
that, there is only white space. 



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Add code to create.html.tmpl and comment.txt.tmpl
2. Submit bug report
3.

Actual Results:  
Appends contents of comment.txt.tmpl to bug report, but, where the form data
should be, there is only white space.

Expected Results:  
Insert form data

This is not the right place to get support, see:

http://www.bugzilla.org/support/

The .cgi script should save this information in $vars->{'checkpriv'}, assuming
$vars is passed to comment.txt.tmpl. comment.txt.tmpl can then access it using
[% checkpriv FILTER html %]
