Hi, Anthony,
thank you for explaining the meaning of the 'context' argument. It works
now as expected.
The suggested approach with variable in extend is neater. It works well
in my development environment. But in the production environment I use
web2py behind Apache through WSGI. If I compile_models,
compile_controllers instead of compile_application, it leads to
"invalid view (default/index.html)" error. Is it true, that {{extend
variable}} can't be used in combination WSGI, since whole app has to be
compiled?

Your context is an empty dict, so the template doesn't see any of the
usual globals.
Anyway, this approach is unnecessary. The argument to extend can be a
Python expression, do just use the extendtempl variable in the extend
statement in the view. The only drawback is that you won't be able to
compile this particular view, but you couldn't do that with your
approach either.
