I'd suppose supplying your filter program with a list of exclusions (regexps or whatever). If a particular file your program is run against is in the list then do not index it. This is much more easier compared to tagging all <TMPL_INCLUDE> constructs and is flexible too. Think that you could just exclude all qr/_header\.tmpl$/
And there's of course a question whether you really want to index templates which are metadata of your website or its content. * Timm Murray <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [June 02 2004, 17:55]: > I have a project which involves changing our current pages using SSI > #includes into using an HTML::Template-based solution instead.
