$.format doesn't work inside {{= }}

[nfplee@…]

The summary basically says it all. You can say:

{{= format(...) }}

Where format is simply a function defined to simply call $.format. But you cannot say:

{{= $.format(...) }}

This seems odd that two plugins both developed by the same people conflict in this way.

Thanks for taking the time to contribute to the jQuery project by writing a bug report.

We require that all bug reports include a valid reduced test case, which reproduces the issue you are experiencing, on ​http://jsfiddle.net. This enables us to more easily investigate this issue further.

Perhaps you're using an old version of tmpl? ​https://github.com/jquery/jquery-tmpl

Using both the {{=}} and ${} notation, the expression runs as expected.

Demo: ​http://jsfiddle.net/danheberden/CC5Qy/

Also, it's worth noting the additional variables available inside of ${} - see ​http://api.jquery.com/template-tag-equal/ (The $item and $data Template Variables heading)

Cheers, i can confirm this works with latest version. I was using the one hosted on the Microsoft CDN.
