RE: Question on scope (not the mouthwash) and another
I am sure:
Here is my index.tcl:
set titleMain "Ellipse Information / Main"
parse main.rvt
Here is my main.rvt:
<? include tpl/header.tpl ?>
<? include tpl/main.tpl ?>
<? include tpl/footer.tpl ?>
Here is my main.tpl (relevent portion):
<div id="pageHeader"><? puts [$titleMain] ?></div>
I have tried:
puts [$titleMain]
puts $titleMain
puts stdout $titleMain
The main.rvt *is* being parsed because the page shows up the way it should.
It just doesn't have $titleMain.

includee does a raw include, without doing any parsing. I think you
want to try the 'parse' command - let us know if that fixes the
problem.

This is wrong, unless $titleMain contains the name of a procedure that
can be evaluated, which it doesn't seem to be in your example.
> puts $titleMain
This second one is correct.

OK, what does the titleMain variable contain? If you want to be sure
it has what you think it has, you might try just adding a quick
set tempfp [open /tmp/titleMain w]; puts $tempfp $titleMain; close
$tempfp
just to get it into an external file and make sure it's sensible.
If it contains what it should contain, well, I'm not up to speed on
that <div> tag, but are you sure it's getting emitted in the proper
section of the webpage, like does it belong in <head> or <body> or
what?

To debug, I'd do the following:
Note that the <div> tag is usually shown, but you should still check
your style sheet to make sure that it isn' hidden or anything. The
easiestz way to rally check the code is "view source" in your favorite
browser to make sure you're looking at the correct <div> tag ...
Does <div id="pageHeader"><? puts FOOBAR ?></div>
result in <div id="pageHeader">FOOBAR</div>
No: your puts does not work
Yes: your $titleMain is empty
> I have tried:
> puts [$titleMain]
Tcl problem: will not work unless you have a proc that has the name of
what's in titleMain that returns the title, such as
set titleMain foo
proc foo {} {return "My actual title"}
> puts $titleMain
works unless titleMain is unset: you can check with
<div id="pageHeader"><? puts [info exists titleMain] ?></div>
if your result is "1" then titleMain is empty (i.e. set titleMain "")
if your result is "0" then titleMain does not exist
> puts stdout $titleMain
Does proably not work, as Apache has its own output channel (well,
that's way it's in Websh, I don't really know about Rivet ...)
