[Zope] template / context question
I am trying to separate out small bits of HTML that are used on many
pages of a site.
In one case I use a secondary navigation on some pages in the right
column that is supposed to look in the containing folder's sub-folders
and list the Page Templates that is finds there.
I create a folder called /templates/widgets and within there I have a
Page Template called template-lister.
h2strongQuick Links/strong/h2
ul tal:define=ztu modules/ZTUtils;
raw python:context.objectValues('Folder');
location_folder_list python:ztu.LazyFilter(raw, skip='View')
li tal:repeat=location_folder location_folder_list
a href= tal:attributes=href location_folder/absolute_url
tal:content=location_folder/titleLocation Title/a
span tal:define=raw
python:location_folder.objectValues('Folder');
office_folder_list
python:ztu.LazyFilter(raw, skip='View')
span tal:repeat=office_folder office_folder_list
span tal:content=office_folder/title title/span
ul tal:define=raw
python:office_folder.objectValues('Page Template');
posting_list
python:ztu.LazyFilter(raw, skip='View')
li tal:repeat=posting posting_list
tal:condition=posting_list
a href= tal:attributes=href posting/absolute_url
tal:content=posting/titlePosting Title/a
/li
lital:condition=not: posting_list
No Postings at this time
/li
/ul
/span
/span
/li
/ul
If I put this code directly in each Page Template that uses it, it works
fine, but when removed from each Page Template and called like so:
span tal:content=structure context/templates/widgets/template-lister
tal:omit-tag= /
it uses the context of the /templates/widgets folder and does not work.
Because this bit of TAL is used on many pages and the style of it
changes often, I really want to pull it out into one place for easy
updating.
I know I am missing something elemental here ...
Thanks for any advice.

Re: [Zope] template / context question
I have solved this by using macros instead of just trying to *include*
the TAL snippit.
I wrapped the snippit in a tag like this:
metal:block define-macro=lister tal:omit-tag=
/metal:block
and called it on each tempalte that uses it liek this:
metal:block
use-macro=context/templates/widgets/template-lister/macros/lister
/metal:block
