[opencms-dev] Contenttemplate doesn't work - please help!

Wed Mar 12 12:26:49 CET 2003

Hello,

I'm currently working on a project with OpenCms 5 RC2.

I've set up the templates like described in the documentation on page 25ff. 
Everything works fine except the contenttemplate element. It doesn't work 
when defined in the mastertemplate. Only if defined directly in the 
frametemplate, everything works correctly.
But defining the contenttemplate (the <ELEMENTDEF> tag) in the frametemplate 
is against the idea and has some serious disadvantages. Thus I want to 
define it in the mastertemplate as described in the manual.

I've studied the documentation example now several times, but can't find any 
difference. Has anybody an idea, what I'am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Oliver
