Re: [Cheetahtemplate-discuss] concatenating strings at compile time

[Raphael M. <rap...@li...>]

Hi,

Maybe I am missing something too, but is your expression in a 
declaration (#def) or in the body of the template?

If it is in the body why isn't the following enough?

${structural_path_vars.s_page_path}styles/layout.css

If it is in a #def, should not the proposition be the following ?

mypath = ("$structural_path_vars.s_page_path" "styles/layout.css")

my 2 cents
