Recommended nesting order when html and widget?

[Mat]

For a non-looping widget, like $set, is there any significant difference between the following, e.g in terms of logic or performance?

<div><$set>...</$set><div>

versus

<$set><div>...</div></$set>

Thanx

The former will be marginally faster when the variable assigned by <$set> changes, as the div wont need to be re-rendered.

Also consider using the <$vars> widget unless you specifically need something the <$set> widget can do which <$vars> cannot.

Saq, appreciated!

Saq, what's the benefit of $vars over $set? I've always assumed it was just syntax, but it sounds like there might be something else?
