Thanks, that works, however it leads me to another issue. Evidently, after
encountering a $:if, the templator never stops assuming indendation. This
isn't working for me, as it forces the code indentation to be off kilter.
For example:
$if content.get('cssfiles'):
$for f in content.cssfiles.split():
<link type="text/css" href="$f" rel="stylesheet" />
</head>
<body>
<nav id="app_header" class="top-bar" data-topbar>
I only want the $:if to apply to the next few lines. Not all the way down
to the </head>.
Know any way I can give the parser a 'hint' to stop reading downline
indentation?
I thought about using $else, but this isn't an else condition.
Thanks!
