Is there a way to split up a page template, and define both standard_html_header and footer as page templates which use the other template. I've tried the <metal:block define-macro="header"> and relevant for footer, which should kindof work, but when I try to save the master template it says that some of my tags aren't nested correctly. This kindof makes sense, because I break the nesting to be able to get the "header" of the template. The reason I would like to now this is because I have some DTML documents which need the standard_html_header, and it would be boring to have to duplicate the work I've done in the template into another DTML-document. Any help appreciated... -- Robin
--- standard_html_header Python Script --------- page = context.standardlook() return page[:page.find('<!--METALbody-->')] ------------------------------------------------------------------ --- standard_html_footer Python Script --------- page = context.standardlook() return page[page.find('<!--METALbody-->')+len('<!--METALbody-->')+1:] ------------------------------------------------------------------ ---- standardlook Page Template------------------- <html metal:define-macro="standard"> ... bla bla... <div metal:define-slot="body"> <!--METALbody--> </div> ... bla bla... </html> --------------------------------------------------------------- The sad thing about this approach is that you have to invoke the macro template twice, but it lets you have the odd few DTML methods in a ZPT'ified structure.
