HomePage Issue

Hi Jonathan,

Below is a dump of my base.tx file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE blocklayout PUBLIC "-//XAR//DTD BL 1.0 Strict//EN" 
"http://xaraya.com/bl1/DTD/bl1-strict.dtd";>
<?xar type="page" ?>
<xar:blocklayout version="1.0" content="text/html" 
xmlns:xar="http://xaraya.com/2004/blocklayout"; dtd="xhtml1-strict">
  <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; lang="en">
    <xar:comment>set some common local variables</xar:comment>
    <xar:set name="themedir">#xarTplGetThemeDir()#</xar:set>
    <xar:set name="sitename"><xar:var scope="module" module="themes" 
name="SiteName" /></xar:set>
    <head>
      <xar:template file="headtagcontent_hp" type="theme" />
    </head>
    <body>
      <div id="xc-outer-wrapper">
        <xar:template file="pageheader_hp" type="theme" />
        <xar:template file="pageblockgroups_hp" type="theme" />
        <xar:template file="pagefooter_hp" type="theme" />
      </div>
      <xar:comment>Body JavaScript - required for all html 
themes</xar:comment>
      <xar:base-render-javascript position="body" />
    </body>
  </html>
</xar:blocklayout>

So the "_hp" (homepage), template files are really just a duplicate of the 
original Xaraya_Classic based files, allowing me to modify various 
components of the Home Page so they differ to the rest of the site (e.g. the 
Top and Botton Nav Bars).

Does this help? Please let me know if you need further information.

Cheers,


Wayne
