For me it was. This is probably some combination of (a) I'm moving the code from Cheetah, which doesn't use indentation this way, and (b) the examples on the doc page didn't seem clear as to whether the indentation was crucial or happenstance. The main example showing a lot of indentation is marked as unimplemented. Also adding to the confusion is that nothing under the 'def' need be indented, even though this would be required in Python. Also, I'm not sure, but I think in playing with this that I had code like this $if blah: $if asdf: qwerty (i.e., no indentation) and it worked, rather than drawing a diagnostic message. It would be helpful to have a somewhat complex example on (or linked from) the doc page that demonstrates all of the basic usage patterns, in the context of a complete example. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web.py" group.
