[Zope] Templates

[Kenneth Ellested]

Thank you very much Lynn and Dieter.

Yes I needed to dig a little further into the ZPT, as I was only
experimenting with TAL. Well I've tried to implement some of the Macro
examples but they always end up with the following error:

Error Type: METALError
Error Value: macro 'here/master' has incompatible version None, at line 1,
column 1

I place both the "definition" and "use" templates in the same folder. If I
insert a blank line in the template that uses the Macro, the error says line
2, column 1. I've done an exact copy of the Macro examples - both with and
without namespaces.

What's wrong ?

Regards

Take a look at: Zope Page Templates (ZPT)
http://www.zope.org//Wikis/DevSite/Projects/ZPT/FrontPage
It is exactly what you're talking about.
