Sometime ago, I suggested a way of defining reusable blocks of text using a macro. See http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=velocity-user&m=99834239229475&w=2.
However, the better way to do with would be to implement a new directive.

I think it's a great little tool, I've decided to use it. Nevertheless, I 'm still facing a little problem.What if some screens want to specify a part of the header, and what if this part, might it be a javascript section for instance, cannot be specified using a #set directive ? i.e. the template part is easy, you'll find sthing like : <head> <title>$page_title</title> $screen_header </head> ... but in the screen template itself, I'm restricted to the #set directive and cannot do sthing like : #header() <javascript> ... </javascript> #end So I was wondering if someone had already encountered the need of a set directive for blocks, sthing like : #block_set($screen_header) <javascript> ... </javascript> #end It would solve my problem.

(oh, and feedback is quite welcome!)Thanks Nathan. I think this new version looks great and is destined to replace my hacked up layout servlet. :-) Cheers, Timo
