Hi,

Perhaps the following question only derives from a basic misunderstanding
by a poor perlOO newby. If so I beg your pardon!

I tried to use EmbperlObject with inheritance by modifying "The Example
for using method calls" in Geralds docu. I were able to overwrite some
methods in "sub/page2.epl" by holding some others from "base.epl" at them
same time. I failed while trying the same with properties: In "page2.epl"
I set a new property '$self -> {test} = "blafasel"' which implicated that
everything set in "base.epl" ($self -> {fontsize}; $self -> {fontcolor};
...) is no longer available. Where am I wrong?

------------------------------->8----(base.epl)----------------------

sub new
   {
   my $self = shift ; 

   # here we attach some data to the request object
   $self -> {fontsize} = 2 ;
   $self -> {fontcolor} = "red" ;
   }

# Here we give a default title
sub title { 'Title not given' } ;
sub headline { 'Headline not given' } ;

!]
