Re: Witango-Talk: including snippets of code

[John McGowan]

Ben,

I tried to send this post to you off the list, but your mail server doesn't seem to be accepting any thing from my mail server.

Anyway, see my comments below about nested @includes.

Off List,

Now, I remember (coffee finally kicked in)

The reason your sub-include of the TML works is because TML is one of
the extensions setup in the web server to tell the web server that
Witango is responsible to process this file.

No,   the @include tag doesn't interact at all with the web server.  It
also doesn't care about file extensions.  When the app server comes
across an @include, it doesn't care what file extension it is... it
simply includes the file and evaluates any meta code it comes across.

In the case where an included HTML file calling a SUB-HTML file this is
not the case. The SUB would not have its metatags processed

Yes they are... See the enclosed example... I just tested this out.

test.taf does an @include of test1.html

test1.html does an @include of test2.html
test2.html does an @include of test3.html
test3.html executes @currentdate.
