Jon,

I am using templating, my understanding is that
Turbine looks up the corresponding layout vm from the
screen vm filename. Please let me know if I am
wrong... 

Would the templating mechanism work in this case with
subdirectories? E.g. screens/lang1/some_dir/index.vm
gets the layout from layout/lang1/some_dir/index.vm?

You mentioned mod_webapp and mod_jk, which is a better
solution? What are the advantages / disadvantages for
both of them? 

Lastly, would you point me to some HOWTO style
documents which would help me out?

btw, I find two of the settings in config file
Turbine.properties a bit confusing me...

template.homepage/Index.vm
template.login=/Login.vm

So when a new request comes in from a client (not
logged-in), which one gets loaded first? My
understanding is that template.homepage will be loaded
first, and in the case of the sample app comes with
Turbine, because the screen Index.class extends
SecureScreens.class which does user authentication, it
throws the user back to template.login, as the user
has not logged-in. Correct me if I am wrong, I spent
so much time on the docs and am still not 100% certain
about the mechanism.

Thanks a bunch


Sincerely,
Kenny
