I am not sure if you understood what I want to do, so I will try
to give an example of what I am thinking...
I suppose I could have a root Layout/Style with
<HTML><BODY>
<table>
<tr><td>
<(content)>
</td></tr>
</table>
...
<table>
<tr><td>
<(content)>
</td></tr>
</table>
</BODY></HTML>
So there are two tables, and some HTML code between them; but the
content
of these tables are not supposed to be the same ... Is there a way to
specify that in the first table I want some kind of content, and in the
second another kind ? I need a way of saying that the contents are
from different sources ....
If I have a root page with PHP3/midgard code that defines what output
I want for the content, I will have the same HTML output in the two
tables, the layout/style is imposing this ...
In your example Emiliano, you have a path/url and so you get two
values in argv, but my page don't have this hierachy, I only have
the root page , acessed by the URL "http://www.mysite.com"
Thank you for your help
