I haven't familiarized myself with the TM usage yet, but maybe I can be an impartial observer. The [@fieldname] is very easy to find when looking in code. I gather you think the new way you suggest could be more powerful (multi-line?). How about a compromise and do something like {@fieldname[multi-line-code]}? Again, not familiar with the TM code, so a few questions come to mind to maybe help better understand what you're trying to do. Is there a restriction to a single-line embedded field with the old way? What are the benefits (in addition to multi-line, if any) you're trying to reap with the new way?

This format looks cool! {@fieldname} - it's visible and the {} looks better >Again, not familiar > with the TM code, so a > few questions come to mind to maybe help better > understand what you're > trying to do.

My reason for the changing the methods was to make it much easier to read and to represent the field with a much nicer syntax. IMO your suggestion: {@filedname} {@fieldname[multi-line text]} looks much better than: [@fieldname] [@fieldname(multi-line text)] All agree to the {@fieldname} format or should we stick to the old way? -- Raymond Irving > Leif > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Raymond Irving" <xw...@ya...> > To: <dyn...@li...> > Sent: Wednesday, June 04, 2003 4:23 PM > Subject: [Dynapi-Dev] TemplateManager new field > format > > > > Hi, > > > > I'm thinking about changing the way we now enter > embed > > fields within an html template. > > > > The old way: > > > > [@fieldname] > > > > The new way: > > > > {fieldname} > > > > {fieldname[ > > This is a multi-line > > embedded field tex/html block > > ]} > > > > > > Which format do you think is best? > > > > > > -- > > Raymond Irving > > > > > > __________________________________ > > Do you Yahoo!? > > Yahoo!
