Daniel,
The template in the View is the end page you want created for eg testview.html.
testview.html:
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block content %}TEST VIEW WITH OBJECT{% endblock %}
base.html:
<body>
<h2>
{% block side_hdr %}here is the side menu for all pages{% endblock%}
</h2>
<p>{% block content %}Base{% endblock %}</p>
</body>
The end product looks like:
<body>
<h2>here is the side menu for all pages</h2>
<p>TEST VIEW WITH OBJECT</p>
</body>
Does that make sense? So the testview.html extends the base.
Everything in teh base appears in teh testview, and testview wil
override anything from base.
cheers

You have to be really clever to come up with a genuinely dangerous
thought. I am disheartened that people can be clever enough to do that
and not clever enough to do the obvious thing and KEEP THEIR IDIOT
MOUTHS SHUT about it, because it is much more important to sound
intelligent when talking to your friends.
This post was STUPID.

Thanks for the info. I am beginning to see the power of these substitutions.
