I would write a tag that adds various elements to the context, along the lines of: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-template-tags/#setting-a-variable-in-the-context One of those elements should be the complete script tag required by all the other elements. Then your template could do something like {% block extrahead %} {{ myscriptvariable }} {% endblock %} ... {% block content %} {{ mycontentvariable1 }} .. {{ mycontentvariable2 }} {% endblock %} -- DR --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
