Question

I have a topic which is a table of release numbers and dates:

Now I want to use the Release and Comment values in a web form, for the values of a selection list, where the Release column becomes the Name column and the Comment column becomes the Tooltip message column:

Is there any way of doing this? I could try futzing around with %SEARCH{...}, but from a quick scan of Form.pm it appears that TWiki uses the raw topic body and assume that it contains the list of values, so any variables won't be expanded before it is parsed.
