For our stuff we make sure that every page deals with all the header
meta info that needs to be inherited as an array. Then dump the array
out in the outermost wrapper.
For example:
outermost.ttml
----------------
... blah blah blah ...
<style type="text/css">
[%
DEFAULT styles = [];
styles.unshift('/css/au_basic.css');
styles.unshift('/css/au_global.css');
FOREACH style = styles.unique;
'@import url("' _ style _ '");' _ "\n";
END;
%]
</style>
... blah blah blah ...
[% content %]
... blah blah blah ...
----------------
somepage.ttml
----------------
[%
DEFAULT styles = [];
styles.unshift('/css/dept.css');
WRAPPER outermost.ttml;
.... some crud ....
END;
%]
----------------
You do that with scripts, css and in our case breadcrumbs and it works
out fairly easily.
Heck... you could even make a template to include in each one that would
propogate that for you. :P
Not as easy as a DOM aware templating engine... but it works well.
