It could be that those actions are evaluated to strings before they are injected into the output template. I try to avoid that, but there could have been some implementation convenience I needed to do that for.

>> Hi, to make a "global" just create an attribute in the outermost template. That, through dynamic scoping, any template that is embedded within that template will see that outermost attribute. For example, when I am generating a file I usually have a fileName attribute at the outermost level in file() template. then, and I stick inside like method() can access that fileName attribute with <fileName>.
