Thanks! I'd actually thought about how to do this, but it's nice to have
real code...

Hi Todd --

You might find writing those "nested" template tags a bit tricky;
there's a not-very-well-documented method you'll need to pull out the
sub-tags.

I've got an example of how you can do these types of nested tags here:
http://www.djangosnippets.org/snippets/300/

Good luck!

Jacob

YUI tags

2007-07-04 Thread Todd O'Bryan

I just looked at YUI yesterday and am pretty impressed. What I'm not
impressed by is how complicated it is to write the markup in HTML for
things like menus so that they'll work in non-JavaScript environments.

I'm considering trying to develop a yuitags app that would just consist
of template tags that compartmentalize YUI widgets in a form that would
make them easy to enter in a Django template. For example, to do a
menubar, you'd do something like

{% menubar %}
{% menu %}
{% menuitem %}Menu One{% endmenuitem %}
{% menuitem %}Item One.1{% endmenuitem %}
{% menuitem %}Item One.2{% endmenuitem %}
{% endmenu %}
{% menu %}
etc.
{% endmenu %}
{% endmenubar %}

The other thing is that you could include a

{{ yui_links }}

variable in the head section of your base template, and each tag would
include the imports it would need to be displayed in the context so that
they'd be loaded automatically.

Does such a thing already exist? If not, is this something people see a
use for? Any gotchas I'm missing that would make this impossible instead
of just tricky?

Thanks,
Todd
