Hi: I have this code (editing out the extraneous) at the beginning of a page: <body bgcolor="#ffffff" tal:define="newRow string:yes"> After calling some other variables (specifically rotating through a changing ¨item¨ (for item in items...)), I try and change newRow: <span tal:define="global newRow item/newRow" tal:omit-tag="" /> Then I try and call newRow: <p tal:replace="newRow" /> But it gives me the original value. Now, if I edit the page like this: <span tal:define="global newRow item/newRow" tal:omit-tag=""> <p tal:replace="newRow" /> </span> it gives me a different value (the one I expect and want). Obviously, my ¨global¨ definition isn´t going global. What can I do to make it global; that is, call it outside of the span tag? TIA, Tony ________________________________________________________________________ Email and AIM finally together. You've gotta check out free AOL Mail! - http://mail.aol.com
