----------------------------------
Is this still an issue, if not please close it (or let me close it)
> [web] Templates nesting/includes
> --------------------------------
>
> Key: LABS-241
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LABS-241
> Project: Labs
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Magma
> Affects Versions: Current
> Reporter: Simone Gianni
> Assignee: Simone Gianni
> Fix For: Future
>
>
> While it is possible to extend a template class with another template class,
> and inherit/override as usual, this is not currently possible on an HTML
> level.
> That means that a web site will have a TempateA.java and a TemplateA.html.
> Then a TemplateB.java, extending TemplateA and simply overriding and
> cutomizing stuff, but must have a TemplateB.html file (if needed) that must
> redefine everything that was in TemplateA.html.
> It would be nice to have a TemplateB.html that simply "patches" TemplateA,
> but unfortunately this is not so easy, because there is no known standard on
> patching an HTML file. XSLT could be a way, but that would be rather an
> extension than a new feature.
> Instead, this lack can be mitigated having a way to include a template in
> another template. This way, common parts between TemplateA and TemplateB
> could be refactored out in, say, FooterTemplate, HeaderTemplate and so on.
> We still need to investigate wether this kind of inclusion should be done in
> the java class, using the current layout system, and/or in HTML directly.
