<blockdef name="tagname" [option="option1 [option2 ...]" ] [global] [expand]> ... <use block> ... </blockdef>

synopsis

BLOCKDEF creates block metatags, which is a fancy way of saying it creates new block tags. A block tag is a tag that takes a whole block as additional parameter. This block is surrounded by <tagname> and </tagname>. The contents of this block are automatically stored in the block macro named BLOCK.

For example:

<blockdef name="section" option="title"> <h1><use title></h1> <p class="section"> <use block> </p> </blockdef> <section title="My Section"> This is a fancy section. </section>

All block metatags have the implicit option EXPAND, which tells htp to expand the contents of the block before the definition is expanded.

A more thorough discussion and more elaborate examples are discussed in the metatag section.
