Ok, that is the problem there. The syntax for accessing
variables in PHP scripts and outside them in Midgard's
own variable substitution system differ a bit.
In PHP scripts, the correct syntax is $object->variable
but when substituting these outside PHP script in Midgard,
the syntax is &(object.variable);
So the line there should be:
?><li><a href="/about/?id=&($article.id);">&($article.title);</a>
However, the problem you had may be revealing a bug
in Midgard's language scanner - I think the correct
behavior with this kind of syntax problem should be
an error message.
