[Zope] #include with DocumentTemplate?

[Chris Beaumont]

Lance,

Do you mean <dtml-var "myDTMLmethodtobeincluded"> ?

Of course, any DTML method will be parsed when the page is viewed, 
using its context, not rendered into a static file beforehand.. 
that's the single biggest plus to using Zope, I think..

:)

HTH,
Chris
