^do(theMacro)^

Allows you to use macros in HTML (and XML) export, where theMacro is a macro you have defined in Tinderbox.

^do(theMacro [,argument, anotherArgument])^

Allows you to use macros in HTML (and XML) export, where theMacro is a macro you have defined in Tinderbox; and argument and anotherArgument are additional arguments that can be passed to the macro.

There are no limits, within sensible reason, to the number of arguments that may be supplied.

Read about macros for usage details.

Internally, the do() operator may be used.

Unlike do(), and specifically in the context of export, ^do^ will evaluate inline export code within the macro's code.

^do^ accepts the theMacro argument as a quoted string (to meet current action code usage for string data).
