Hi Ron, As I am not doing anything too complex with WPS themes, I am using just a text editor - EditPlus! If you have jsp reloading enabled the turnaround time is pretty quick. So far the purple screen of death has been enough to lead me to the error(s).
What is a Velocity template comprised of? I have approached the JSP and JSPF files rather gingerly so far, as all things Java-related are still new and strange to me. That is where a majority of the heavy lifting is going on, along with the properties file.
