In JSPish terms the Clay template include is like a JSP include versus a page directive. <jsp:include page="dynamic.jsp"/> -- versus -- <jsp:directive.include file="static.jsp"/> Once a template is parsed, it can be reused by any number of templates without reparsing. However, the symbols are scoped from the outer template to layers of included/nested templates. > Cheers, > Ian. > Gary > >
