Parsing <txp:variable /> as tag attribute fails
hello forum,
i would like to use a variable as tag attribute to <txp:article_custom />.
i’ve defined a valid date string as value to the variable and if i output it somewhere in my template <txp:variable name="date" /> it returns the correct string: 2012-03-27.
however, once i try to use it as an attribute to article_custom it fails:
<txp:article_custom section="exhibitions" time="future" month='<txp:variable name="date" />' />does not return nothing. while
<txp:article_custom section="exhibitions" time="future" month=2012-03-27" />as expected outputs all articles in section exhibitions starting march 27. what am i doing wrong?
tanks for your help!

Where the tag is placed in the template can influence its output. Can you post a tag trace of the page in question?

thank you els,
i have solved this. it was some weird interference with another tag. the syntax was ok.
