Hi Geoff

That's what i thought - I'll need to use a some logic in execute.cfm to pick up on the request or url variables.

I guess i was expecting to be able to pass something in on the container tag call, so in my outer webskin i could do something like

<con:container label="#stObj.objectID#_images" displayMethod="someOtherWebskin">

As for a Reflected or Shared container, i've no idea of the terminology (or what i'm really trying to do...) - but i am attempting to use the <container> tag in two different webskins of the same base type.

Thanks
Phil

In any event, you should be able to pick up any environment variable
to switch the view.  For example in the execute.cfm you could have
some logic that switches a skin:view call based on URL scope,
something in the page's principal object (stored in request.stobj),
and so on.

What's in your execute.cfm now?

I have a container displaying simple dmImages using a particular

elsewhere, but display the child images using a different webskin than
what is set on the rule at container creation time.

There doesn't seem to be a nice way to provide a override to allow me
to make use of the same container elsewhere but use a different
webskin on the dmImages, short of setting a global variable that's
picked up the execute webskin for my rule.

Has anyone tried to achieve this before? How have you gone about it?

Am on release 6.0.15
