Hi,

I have several views which are similar, so I am using common view file 
using "response.view =common_view.html" rather than separate one per 
controller.

Out of these - 2 or 3 views are slightly different where certain parts of 
the page (layout.html) need to be hidden.

I tried :

return dict(msg=msg, grid=grid, hide_my_div=True)

in the view template I have :

{{if hide_my_div:}}
<script>
 $(document).ready(function(){
      $("#my_div").hide();
  });
<script>
{{pass}}

This works for the small number of views where I want to hide "my_div"
Unfortunately - this also means I need to pass "hide_my_div=False" from 
large number of controllers.

Is there a way to have hide_my_div=False *as a default* - so that I do not 
need to return it explicitly - and I can override only when needed (2-3 
controllers)
Something like optional params with default values ?

May be the way I am handling this is wrong. Is there a better way ?

(I know that I can create separate view files for these "odd ones", but I 
prefer not to, since these are going to be 90% similar to common_view.html 
anyway)

Thanks,
-Mandar
