I was testing Django's template's inheritance feature and noticed how useful it is. Does anyone know if it's possible to do something similar with CI's Template Parser? Here's what I was referring to for Django, lifted from http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/top...lates/#id1:

The following is base.html

Code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"

    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

&lt;html &gt;

&lt;head&gt;

    &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" /&gt;

    &lt;title&gt;{% block title %}My amazing site{% endblock %}&lt;/title&gt;

&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

    <div id="sidebar">

        {% block sidebar %}

        <ul>

            <li><a href="/">Home</a></li>

            <li><a href="/blog/">Blog</a></li>

        </ul>

        {% endblock %}

    </div>

    <div id="content">

        {% block content %}{% endblock %}

    </div>

&lt;/body&gt;

&lt;/html&gt;

The sub template:

Code:
{% extends "base.html" %}

{% block title %}My amazing blog{% endblock %}

{% block content %}

{% for entry in blog_entries %}

    <h2>{{ entry.title }}</h2>

    <p>{{ entry.body }}</p>

{% endfor %}

{% endblock %}
