The others are correct. You can't put block tags inside an include.
It's pretty logical really. The block system cascades down templates
through the "extends" system. Includes are by nature outside that
track. They can be pulled into any template at any point in the
process. Block tags in an include would often collide with the block
tag names of other includes or blocktags on the host template.
Here's another way to look at it. You are including something on your
template, which means that it will always be there. Put the block tag
for your css and js on the template where you are putting the include.
That way they are always together. If you are wrapping the include in
a conditional statement. Wrap the css and js in the same conditional
statement, so if one of them appears they will both appear. Or make
your js and css a separate include and have it pulled into your block
js while the html is included into your block content. You can put
includes into nested folders in your app or a separate includes folder
if you would like to keep them together. for instance
{% block js %}{{ block.super }}
{% if myapp.has_nav %}
{% include "/myapp/includes/nav/js.txt" %}
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}{{ block.super }}
{% if myapp.has_nav %}
{% include "/myapp/includes/nav/html.html" %}
{% endif %}
{% endblock %}
Hope this helps.
