I'm doing that (but then I would be wouldn't I? 8-) http://www.mandant.net is an example - the content of each page comes from a file containing just the content, the layout and sidebar are defined in a template HTML file, and the navigation is built by a Python script. All that is pulled together using PyMeld into a set of HTML files and deployed to the web server (there's no need to it on the fly for that site, but you certainly could). > I want for a URI request to mysite.com/info > to pull in a layout.html template which will in turn be populated by > the info.html template.

You'd do something like this: from PyMeld import Meld LAYOUT = """<html><head><title id='title'>The Title</title></head> <body><div id='info'>The page information goes here.</div> <p id='footer>Copyright Me 2007.</p></body></html>""" INFO = """<html><head><title id='title'>The real title</title></head> <body id='info'><p>Here is the info, which would in the real world be read from a file.</p></body></html>""" page = Meld(LAYOUT) info = Meld(INFO) page.title = info.title._content page.info = info.info._content print page Is that the sort of thing you had in mind? -- Richie Hindle [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
