What about Kid's document() function? Couldn't we imagine to use this to "call" parts together from different controllers with their associated template fragments? What's the purpose of the fragment parameter in the expose decorator?
Admittedly I really don't feel comfortable with all that Ajax stuff (sorry I'm 42 ;-) and moved a hard way from terminal app's to the web so far) and I need another, more classic way to achieve a similar result. Please don't misunderstand me! I really like TG. I've been looking around more than 5 years and closely followed Webkit, TG, Django, Pylons ... and finally decided several months ago to use TG with MySQL to write an integrated POS and BO system for the shop I'm running. TG is a great deal and allows me to do things in such a natural way that I sometimes can't believe it's so easy. But, I really miss a simple way to do what I've described above. I really think that this is a missing feature. Marc On Jul 2, 1:45 pm, "Diez B.
