Re: [mv] Variable Not Working Right. HELP!



******    message to minivend-users from Ed LaFrance <edlafrance@printexusa.com>     ******

John -

Ain't no big thing.  This is straight from the docs:

-----

[include ...]

named: [include file=``name'']

positional: [include file]

AUTOINTERPOLATE: ALWAYS -- even Variable settings are interpolated.

NOTE: New to MiniVend 3.04.

Same as [file name] except interpolates for all MiniVend tags and variables.

---

The nice thing about [include] is that you don't have to restart the server 
to see any changes that you make in the included content!
