How to use the first Input Token in the second Input

[digitalX]

Hi Comunity
I have some problem with input token in XML forms. The following code is working:

<form>
  <label>Update IP Blacklist</label>
  <description>Expired Bsp.: 60m, 24h, 8d, 2w, 1mon</description>
  <fieldset submitButton="true" autoRun="true">   
    <input type="text" token="Expired">
      <default>2w</default>
    </input>
    <input type="text" token="CLIENT_IP">
      <suffix>" | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST = 1 | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST_EXPIRY = relative_time(now(), "+2w") |...
...

and the following code does not: (the difference is at the end. I replaced the "+2w" with $Expired$)

<form>
  <label>Update IP Blacklist</label>
  <description>Expired Bsp.: 60m, 24h, 8d, 2w, 1mon</description>
  <fieldset submitButton="true" autoRun="true">   
    <input type="text" token="Expired">
      <default>2w</default>
    </input>
    <input type="text" token="CLIENT_IP">
      <suffix>" | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST = 1 | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST_EXPIRY = relative_time(now(), "$Expired$") |...
...

After I replaced that, I get the Error: "Unbalanced quotes." on the Dashboard. I tried it also with $Expired$ (without quotes) and $Expired|s$. Allways the same.

Has anyone a hint for me?

hi digital,

in the next line, you forget to write the + before $Expired$

<suffix>" | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST = 1 | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST_EXPIRY = relative_time(now(), "$Expired$") |...

So here's what you need to write

 <suffix>" | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST = 1 | eval CLIENT_IP_BLACKLIST_EXPIRY = relative_time(now(), "+$Expired$") |...

and then tries to execute to get the result.
I waiting your remarks to see if it functioning
