Wow! Thanks, Gerald. I will try this stuff out over this weekend. It
certainly looks good.
I hope you can get away now and do real holiday stuff!
Best wishes

Neil,
I have found a small free time slot and instead of doing nice things I have
sit in front of my computer and hacked a little bit at the things we talk
about yesterday. I just have commited a change to the CVS that allows you to
do the following:

pod, please write everything in pod. All the Embperl docs are written in pod
and I have a script that generates the whole Embpe

Gerald, when I try to move the above Execute state
Gerald, thanks for the feedback on my EmbperlObject code. I will be
re-working my sites to use the new methodology over Christmas (bah,
humbug), and I will also make a start on some kind of EmbperlObject
tutorial (I will see how it goes, at least it will be a start). I don't

Yes, I agree that would be really usefull.

Gerald, you hit the nail on the head this time. This is exactly what I
was talking about. I apologise if I sounded a bit frustrated last email
- I've really been thrown by this thing over the last few days. It's
make me question everything I was doing, and after 8 months that's quite
a lot of code

Gerald, I should have spotted that myself - this small example works
now. I will play with it for a bit and see how it looks in my (somewhat
larger) projects... I'll let you know if any more problems/idea
an idea i've been considering was to have some sort of:
[$ uses 'subs.epl' $]
command that did:
compile $epl;
$pkg = package for $epl;
push @{caller.'::ISA'}, $pkg;
that way you could selectively insert other embperl files into your
inheritance path, and each individual sub can be overridd

Oops, sorry my fault, must be:
[- Execute ({inputfile => 'subs.html', sub => 'NEW', param => \@p}) -]
the 'subs.html#NEW' works only in the short syntax, i.e.
[- Execute ('subs.html#NEW') -]
the other solution would be to change i

Don't hestitate to ask again, if I understand you wrong! Maybe it wasn't
obvious to me what you ment, maybe I simply wasn't

Neil,
I think what you need here is to use Perl methods instead of plain
functions. EmbperlObject bless's the Embperl Request Object into the package
of the current calling page, so you are able to call the correct subroutine
by using the method call syntax. (and you don't need to import anything
