You could do this: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/web2py/4IFFE-7vq1I/discussion. The only downside is you have to call the special render() function in each controller instead of relying on web2py's default handling of the rendering.
Another option is to create a special helper for your ember markup: In a model or imported from a module: class em(DIV): tag = '' def xml(self): return '{{%s}}' % super(em, self).xml() In web2py view: {{=em('stuff that goes in ember markup')}} {{=em('stuff that goes in ember markup, ', A('including nested web2py helpers', _href='#'))}} {{=A(em('ember markup nested in a web2py helper'), _href='#')}} Produces: {{stuff that goes in ember markup}} {{more stuff, <a href="#">including nested web2py helpers</a>}} <a href="#">{{ember markup embedded in a web2py helper}}</a> Ultimately, it would be nice if the web2py markup tags were more easily configurable. I was thinking it might be nice to do so in routes.py -- that way you could specify custom tags on a per view basis (though if the views extend a layout, the layout would have to have the same custom tags as the view).
