If I am not mistaken, max_includes is supposed to prevent *recursive* includes, but is it also supposed prevent a single template from including more than x number of templates at all (i.e. not recursively)? A quick test showed that this is also prevented. With that assumption, I'm trying to figure out how that counter is generated. Leaving the default max_includes to 10 as is, I have created 10 files, named file1.html..file10.html. They all have the exact content, which is a single INCLUDE tag: -- <TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="content.html"> -- I then created a file called test.html, with this content: -- <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file1.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file2.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file3.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file4.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file5.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file6.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file7.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file8.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file9.html"></TMPL_IF> <TMPL_IF false><TMPL_INCLUDE NAME="file10.html"></TMPL_IF> -- Here's my perl script: -- #!/usr/bin/perl use HTML::Template; my $template = HTML::Template->new( filename => "test.html" ); print $template->output(); -- Running the script above, I received the following error: "likely recursive includes - parsed 10 files deep and giving up" Ok, so INCLUDEs are counted regardless of whether a condition surrounding them is true or not. Now another question is, are each of the INCLUDEs inside each file1..file10 being counted as well? If they aren't, I should be able to remove one line from test.html, leaving 9 INCLUDEs, and it should work. I removed the last statement from test.html, which INCLUDEs file10.html, and found that the script worked, meaning that the INCLUDE statements inside of each file1..file10 are not being counted. I know that TMPL_INCLUDES are processed before anything else, which may explain why conditions don't matter. However, am I just making the wrong assumption that "10 files deep" refers to recursion, not just any kind of includes? --Alex --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
