Sorry for such a late response here. Just reading through posts I'd missed while away and came across this.

In my case I had a series of wrapper divs that made up rounded boxes on my site. There were several variations, and some had different content inside and/or unique classes that needed to be applied. It seemed wrong to have 30 different snippets that were all variations on the same theme. My goal was to make snippets more like rails helpers or partials -- which meant that you needed to be able to pass (and then process) arguments. I even wrote a special modification to the <r:snippet> tag for this very reason (though it's not technically necessary) In the body you'd add: <r:snippet name="box" vars="content:text to fill" /> <r:snippet name="box" vars="content:second text to fill" /> Then in the snippet, you'd add: <div class="foo">.... <r:puts value_for="vars[content]" /> </div> If you want to get fancy, you can also pass multiple, optional parameters, like: <r:snippet name="box" vars="content: 'text to fill'; id: myId" /> and: <div class="foo"<r:if cond="vars[id]> id="<r:puts value_for="vars[id]" />"</r:if>> <r:puts value_for="vars[content]" /> </div> In this case your snippet adds the id tag to your div IF you include a value for it. Feel free to download the extension and try it out: http://swankinnovations.svnrepository.com/svn/open/radiant/extensions/vars_if/trunk/ Hope this helps! -Chris On 9/18/07, Andrea Otto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I'd like to know how can I use radiant at the best... > > For example: I have a Homepage with a lot of boxes with same graphic. > How can I deploy this? > > My first thought was creating something like this in the body: > > <r:snippet name="box">text to fill</r:snippet> > <r:snippet name="box">second text to fill</r:snippet> > > and create a snippet like this: > <div class="foo">.... > <r:content> > </div> > > I know that it can't be done... but it is my first use logic... > > So...
