Re: [Templates] How to get around max. variable length?

> Hello,

Today, I also tried creating a named block in my template index.tt and
then tried to pass it's name in the "html" variable below and then
IMPORT that block in the std.ttl to no avail. 

You can recreate my problem by using the example below and putting 25K
text in the html variable. I would be happy also to try some completely
different overall approach, but I can't come up with anything else that
fully separates content from presentation as the below does. Of course,
I could have the "html" variable point to yet another file and then use
the INCLUDE directive in my std.ttl file to suck it in, but then I need
two files for every webpage :( .

If anyone has any suggestions on this I would be most grateful.
