I have no particular opinion on dotted name support except that: a) I think I read somewhere that it was now unnecessary and that the relevant template path was already in place, so tried removing the "projectname.templates." prefix, and couldn't get it to work; b) Pretty much all the documented examples use dotted notation, so I couldn't see how to do it any other way or what I was doing wrong in the first place. Of course, I could have completely misunderstood what is meant by dotted notation - if so, please forgive me. :) I do organise my templates in a hierarchical structure and would be interested in whether this would be affected by removal of this support. -- Ben Sizer --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
