No! I didn't missed that part. Like Xavi said the benefit is a valid html page. It would be much more intresting having something like
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:lift="http:// liftweb.net/"> <head><!-- I don't not if it's valid to just not even have a head tag when we don't want to --></head> <body lift:layout="default" lift:name="content"> <h2>Welcome to your project!</h2> <p><lift:helloWorld.howdy /></p> </body> </html> witch has less boilerplate (than my first example) and is very easy IMHO to understand and read. I'm very new to lift and I just think that telling something that would look easier to me, would also look easier to any newby. At the other hand, being newby also means that I don't have a good overview of the framework and it's design. It is better thought to say something event if it is wrong before you get used to it, because then you'll just get used to it!! Yoryos On May 31, 1:53 am, "Charles F.
