[html-template-devel] Recursive templates?
by Eli Naeher 18 Jul '06

18 Jul '06

Hello, I've begun using (and enjoying) the html-template package but have run up against the fact that I can't create recursive templates, apparently because TMPL_INCLUDE is evaluated before any conditionals are. Are there any patches around to implement this, or is there a workaround? I'm trying to build a tree out of nested lists, and I'd like to be able to make a template 'list-item,' looking something like:  <li>  <ul>    </ul>   Thanks, --Eli

[html-template-devel] tmpl_unless
by Igor Plekhov 03 Apr '06

It would be nice to have <TMPL_UNLESS></TMPL_UNLESS> construct in CL-HTML-TEMPLATE. As a negative to <TMPL_IF></TMPL_IF>. Sometimes it is necessary to check for absence of a parameter which is used in positive form in other places of a template. -- Registered Linux User #124759

[html-template-devel] Dynamic TMPL_INCLUDE
by Peter BARABAS 20 Jan '06

20 Jan '06

Hello, How does one name the files to include dynamically? I've tried  --> but obviously it didn't work. I also tried something like: # template file  # code ...(:include "")... It didn't work, since HTML-TEMPLATE only fills the tags once. Thank you in advance. -- '(Yours parenthetically), peter barabas.

It's a bug. No, it isn't. The docs clearly say that the included file "is implicitely converted into a template printer AT GENERATION TIME." > Also it would be nice to have a feature to completely disable the > cache, so that HTML-TEMPLATE will always regenerate template > printer. It would be useful in a development process. See the documentation for CREATE-TEMPLATE-PRINTER - specifically the :DO-NOT-CACHE keyword. If you're sure you'll never want to use the cache write an :AROUND method for CREATE-TEMPLATE-PRINTER which sets the FORCE parameter accordingly. Cheers, Edi.

[html-template-devel] Loop Quirk "Maybe"
by Leander Gillard 21 Jul '05

21 Jul '05

Hello, I'm developing a web application using a combination of CGI::App, CGI::Template, xmlHTTPreq. The problem I am having is that when I get a return string from my xmlhttpReq request it comes back as expected, I check this like this. alert(t); But when I set the innerHTML of a div immediately after like so. window.getObject(name).innerHTML = t; It removes a beginning chunk of the string when trying to use innerHTML on a select box and just doesn't do anything using innerHTML on a DIV(but the div solution works for FF). It must be noted that if I put the div anywhere outside of the html::template loop it then works in IE. This seems to be IE specific or related. Any and all help would be appreciated. Sincerely, Leander

Something like (defun add-artist () (with-output-to-string (*default-template-output*) (fill-and-print-template template/printer values))) should do it. Note that FILL-AND-PRINT-TEMPLATE prints its output to the stream *DEFAULT-TEMPLATE-OUTPUT* and TBNL wants a string returned by the handler, so the code above makes sure everything printed to this stream ends up in a string which is returned by the function. This assumes that ADD-ARTIST is a handler, not a dispatcher. > Also another issue I am having is get-parameters, get-parameter, > post-parameters and post-parameter all don't seem to work. Even > with something like > (defun add-artist () > (with-html > (:html > (get-parameters)))) > does not work (the way I'd expect it to at least, it produces only > the prologue and <html></html> even when passed parameters). WITH-HTML is the macro which uses CL-WHO from the test suite, right? If that's the case you must wrap the form (GET-PARAMETERS) with something that asks CL-WHO to include it in the output, otherwise it'll only be evaluated for its side effects. One of (str (get-parameters)) (esc (get-parameters)) (fmt "~S" (get-parameters)) should do it. Does that help? Cheers, Edi.

[html-template-devel] Possibility of changing tag names
by Luis Oliveira 19 Sep '04

19 Sep '04

Hi, First off, many thanks for you great Lisp softwares. They are useful for both using and reading. :-) After seeing the *template-(start|end)-marker* special variables I wondered why not do that same for the TMPL_* tokens. I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not but since it was so trivial to implement I'm sending you a patch in attach. The documention might need further editing. Thanks, -- Luís Oliveira Veras tio, kion mi trifoje http://student.dei.uc.pt/~lmoliv/ diras al vi.
