   * Q: Fred Toth's solution doesn't work for VelocityTools 1.2.  :(
   * A: From 1.2, !VelocityViewServlet uses the !SeparateInstanceModel.  You 
will have to set the !VelocityEngine instead of the Velocity singleton class.  
Something like SilentParseInclude.

+  * Q: Why are Velocity templates not working from JavaScript?
+  * A: Velocity runs on the *server*, whereas JavaScript runs on the *client* 
in the browser. Think of it this way: user requests a page ---> server uses 
velocity to render templates into HTML (with JavaScript ---> browser displays 
the page that consists of HTML & JavaScript. 
+ In other words, all of the Velocity template processing happens *before* the 
page is sent to the browser. There is no way for JavaScript to render Velocity 
template directives without going BACK to the server. Note also that Velocity 
*can* be used to render custom JavaScript. (Tim Colson)

   * Q: The !MessageTool is throwing a !NullPointerException, why doesn't 
VelocityTools test for NPE's?
