[web2py] Re: Common value for all application pages

Into the "modules" folder I created file (call it myfile.py for example). Into this file there is a variable "title". This variable contains value that is common for all pages of my application. If import var = local_import('myfile') and return dict(var=var) all be OK. But with many controllers I'
