You've lost me now. I understood the previous 'two lyrs in
a table example' and thought it was very neat.

One idea is that once the template html is set. The actual
template setHTML() can be overloaded to provide a similar
expansion of variables.

Useful for getImage when we don't need a DynLayer child.

var h='<table><tr><td>[@img1]</td<td>[@img2]</td>...
var f=dynapi.functions;
var img1=f.getImage('images/img1.jpg',10,10);
var img2=f.getImage('images/img2.jpg',10,10);

var tp = new Template(h,100,100);
tp.setHTML(img1.getHTML(),'img1');
tp.setHTML(img2.getHTML(),'img2');

or something like that.

Could you show the above as a complete example?

Could you show the above as a complete example?
Have I missed a dynapi extention that defines setField()
and getFieldBlock()?
