Hi Ricardo,
You are using the curly braces incorrectly. A normal velocity reference
looks like this:
$reference
You can optionally wrap the name in braces like this:
${reference}
If you want to use the silent mode place the ! After the $, like this:
$!{referece}
Velocity won't know what to think of:
$c1{name}
Because it parses $c1 at the reference, not {name}
Hope this helps.
Evan

Subject: help - text within { } is not rendered by the engine
Hi,I decided to post this question one more time in case this time someone
has an answer to this problem. I am using velocity 1.4. I am having problems
when rendering text that is enclosed within { }. Here's my velocity
template:Hello $name! Welcome to Velocity!$c1{name}$c2{phone}Here's the
output I get:Hello John! Welcome to Velocity!$c1{$c2{$name is a velocity
reference. $c1 and $c2 are not velocity references. So, what I was expecting
to get in the generated document is the following:Hello John! Welcome to
Velocity!$c1{name}$c2{phone}As shown above, I am not expecting velocity to
make any changes to the $c1 and $c2 lines. However, the engine is removing
the text after the '{' character. Any ideas on what is wrong with my
template? Thanks.
