Witango-Talk: including snippets of code Back on Topic

[John McGowan]

Including a taf withing a taf is a totaly different beast.

It represents a total misunderstanding of what the <@include> tag does 
and has nothing to do with the original question.
Of course @including a taf withing a taf won't work.  That's what 
branching is for.

It's a moot point anyway, because the original problem that Roland had 
was simply because he had a typo in his included file.  I just wanted to 
make sure that everybody understanded that there was nothing wronge with 
nested includes.

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.
