I do always want to render *both* templates with this one particular
controller, but that doesn't mean that
the templates will always be rendered together by a *different*
controller.

So just say I have one controller for my index page with a template
that will show the following
* Football teams
* Garden plants

Now If I have another page somewhere else where I only want to display
the Garden plants only,
I would possibly have to just copy and paste the Garden plants
specifics from the index template and create another template

What's better though (IMHO) is to create a template for Football
teams, and for Garden plants, so then in your index template
you can have something like (I'm using Kid...not Genshi)

${include Football.kid}
${include Garden.kid}

I've actually found a post on stackoverflow which asks the exact same
question, and actually gives the exact same answer that
Uwe Schroeder gave me (as well as a clunky way to do it in Kid).

Perhaps I've missed something along the way though?

Cheers


And just say displaying
