The type inferencer determines the type to be List[Node].  Lift's convention
is that it looks for NodeSeq (it's hard to do pattern matching on List[Node]
because of type erasure) so you have to explicitly define the return type.

I've found the solution to this. It seems that for some reason I
needed to provide the return type on the posts method, as so:

def posts(html: NodeSeq): NodeSeq = {
...

Odd it should fail in such a manner without it, I would expect the
return type to be inferred by the compiler, or an error given.

Thanks.

Hi,

What happens when you do a clean build? Do you still get the error?

Are you getting any snippet failure errors in the console when jetty
is running?

Thanks, Tim
