What I want to do is include a variable html file (an html fragment)
in the middle of my page. I suppose I could use a server-side include
(SSI) but it seems easier to keep it in web2py.
I have my template that defines header, footer, whatever and in a
central content pane: let's call it static.html.
I want to include the html from a file, e.g. my_fragment.html. I can
see 2 options:
1. a static.py controller that accepts a variable, gets the html (not
sure how you do that yet) and returns it as a dict(file=my_html) to
static.html and the view includes the contents of the variable.
2. a static.py controller that returns the variable file name to
static.html view and the view gets the file and includes it.
Either way, it seems that I need the view to contain something like
{{include =file}} and I can't find an example of this or get it to
work by trial and error. {{include 'specific_file.html'}} works fine
but not what I want and I can't use an if...else...else as I don't
know all the possible files.
Am I barking up the wrong tree or is there a simple solution?
Bill
