We do something similar to your #2. We use a slightly more obvious syntax though. We use <TMPL_VAR> for things that are being loaded on the first pass and <DYN_VAR> for things on the 2nd pass. Just FYI, I've heard this technique named a couple of different things, in case you want to impress anyone :) It's usually called "2 pass templating" or "Write-thru cache templating". -- Michael Peters Plus Three, LP ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Html-template-users mailing list Html-template-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/html-template-users
