Need help with trivial HTML-template PLZ [message #482874]

I'm trying to create a template that would wrap selected text with new tag. (The template should obviously let me fill the tag name, a cursor should end where the attributes go...)

<${tagName}${cursor}>${word_selection}</${tagName}>

Yet when I apply the template on let's say "word" I end up with following error message:
Template Evaluation Error:
First position 'ord<tag' at 1452, this position 'rd</tag' at 1466

... and the result looks like this:
|word|<tagName>word</tagName>
(pipes indicating selection)

...instead of:
<writeTagName|>word</writeTagName>
(pipe indicating cursor)

What am I doiing wrong PLZ?

Its probably a bug. Before you open one, it'd help if you narrowed it
down ... is it only HTML? XML too? Java? Plain text? That will help
determine who should look at it (or, if there is already an existing one).

I will try to narrow it.

As for whether this is already filed or not:

...I am not sure though whether this is exactly the same thing.

I suspect that's close enough that you could file
your use-case there, since it says "The cursor variable's not
one we can support without some changes to the wizard". I think in your
use case, it is the cursor variable that is the issue (that is, if the
cursor variable is left out, then works as expected).

The result is always messed. (I should have probably used "line_selection" instead of "word_selection" though.)
In HTML with certain type of selection I don't get the error when I ommit the cursor-variable. In XML I always get the error, even without the cursor-variable.
