Thanks for the suggestion but, that won't work...
You see, the main idea behind the templates is to allow my designers to keep to HTML and not have to even
think about splitting a file up into head.tpl, foot.tpl. row.tpl and so forth. Come to think of it, I don't think I would use it even if I where doing all of the work myself because the of the template mess you might get into when doing a complex designed site. Keeping track of each tpl file would become, as
lhoward put it, a maintenance nightmare.
But thanks anyway.
