Hi James, I didn't think it was possible to nest tales modifiers because the parser assumes that anything after the modifier is the subject that needs modifying. Maybe I'm wrong but it doesn't matter - I've run into this before and here's what I did (using your code):
<tal:block tal:define="global prodSellPrice php:prodRow.getProductPrintableSellPrice()"/> <td tal:content="money: prodSellPrice"></td> The <tal:block/> could be another <td/> with an tal:omit-tag in it but...I like using tal:block if I'm just defining a variable. So the TAL variable gets defined to the php: value, then the money: modifier will format the TAL variable. I haven't tried doing the define in the <td/> tag - I just like to keep that stuff separated. If you HAVE to have nested modifiers then, because the money: modifier comes before the php: modifier, you could regex the $src argument for modifiers and handle the nesting yourself in the tales_money function - but I'm not sure how to handle modifiers inside a tales function.
