preHook question

When a preHook is called and you use it to set a value i.e



Now within the form, how should the ’name’ item appear?
[[!+fi.name]] ?
[[!+name]]

if you havent overridden the &placeholderPrefix property. [ed. note: splittingred last edited this post 11 years, 10 months ago.]

cheers.... realize the error in my ways - as i was using my own stripped down version of formit and i had the prehook part commented out... :’(

I'm having the OP's question.

In splittingred's answer, I see only 1 line of text - has some other text, above the 1 line, been lost? If not, I do not fully understand the answer. If yes, could you supply the rest of your original answer, please?

No, that's the whole answer. The OP wanted to know what the placeholder would be for a value set in a preHook using the code in his post. Splittingred's one-liner is the answer.
