Michael,
Wouldn't a benefit be that you could pass a database query in via that
variable, either via form submit or value of a clicked link?
I know PHP can do this without a separate templating engine, but if you do
use one then you can submit an array to a specific template. Is there a way
to do this via built in functions without constructing the set of page
object's first, or can you only do this in templates?
regards,
andrew
