[Orgmode] generating titles in remember templates from w3 buffers [was:Re: feature request]

[Robert D. Crawford]

As I mentioned below, using the annotation expansion in the template
does not work when using w3.  I did see the error in my template and
have fixed it (unnecessary brackets).  I am wondering if there is some
other way to get the title or if it can be added as a feature.

I've changed the post below to reflect the change in my template and
what it returns.

Thanks in advance for any help,

As stated in a previous mail, Sebastian's solution works for browsers
outside of emacs.
