You know, I've never really gotten this either. Maybe Jim Fulton could explain for us one more time or else point us at a good explanation of -why- acquisition begins at the root and goes down the tree instead of starting at the current level and going up, which I believe is what pretty much everyone expects it to do when they first run across it. -jfarr ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hi!

Me again (last one for tonight!)
Aquisition is groovy, but is it possible to refine aquired properties instead of redefining them from scratch?
(Creating a standard_html_header in s subfolder and using <dtml-var standard_html_header> does not produce expected result, that is grabbing the upper-level's definition of standard_html_header).
Is there a DTML tag such as <dtml-refine> which, when stated at a given level, would indicate where to insert sublevel redefinition of the DTML method?
Maybe i'm thinking too much of OO inheritance...
