template::wizard::get_param (public)

 template::wizard::get_param name

Defined in packages/acs-templating/tcl/wizard-procs.tcl

Get a wizard's param value

"template::wizard get_param" has the advantage over ad_page_contract of getting the param value during the response time. What does this mean? It will properly get the current value of the param which was set by "template::wizard set_param", while ad_page_contract will not pick that up since it will get what is the request http var value. This is because "template::wizard get_param" gets the value from the Tcl var while ad_page_contract gets the value from the http var. So while processing in Tcl that value may change.
